Freedom
PRAMOD N 1985 (Hubbali)
FREEDOM*
Freedom is not free from the slavery of enemies,
But freedom is free from our own bad habits;
Freedom is not free from poverty,
But freedom is free from corruption;
Freedom is not free from physical harassment,
But freedom is free from negative thoughts;
Freedom is not free from weakness,
But freedom is free from ignorance.
Freedom is not free from politicians,
But freedom is free from electing bad politicians;
Freedom is not waiting for someone to free them,
But freedom is to be free from fear;
Freedom is not free from violence,
But free from religious mind;
Freedom is not free from failures,
But freedom is free from high expectations;
Freedom is not free from illiterate,
But Freedom is free from a lack of wisdom;
Freedom is not free from a dangerous disease,
But freedom is free from Ego;
Freedom is not free from enemies,
But freedom is free from unforgiveness;
Freedom is not free from orphans,
But freedom is free from failing to help others.
