How do we liberate ourselves,
from the realms of negativity?
maybe we transcend our mind,
to see the rainbow in its colorful glory,
and not as a mundane monochrome arc;
maybe we forgive someone,
from the bottom of our heart,
and not from the surface as an afterthought;

It really doesn’t matter…
if it is the Sun that rises to
relieve the darkness of night; or
if it is Earth that spins to
erase its own spell of gloom.

How do we disengage ourselves,
from the clutches of anxiety?
maybe we train our body and mind,
to kick habits that die hard,
and adopt those that make us live easy;
maybe we celebrate someone’s success,
not as one of ours, but
truly as one of their own.

It really doesn’t matter…
if it is the storm that drifts to
free the land below of misery; or
if it is the draft that propels it to
comfort the jitters in us.

To liberate oneself,
is it a means to transform, or
is it cause of transform?

It sure is an act…
the act towards freedom.
One third of – freedom from,
Two thirds of – freedom to, and
A whole of – freedom to be.
