Chains

June 4, 2007

I am only bound by what I choose to be bound by. This is not true, some would cry, but it is. I might consider what I have or stand to lose by unbinding myself too great a cost, but I am the one determining even that. But your life! Aye, sometimes one might give that to break the bonds. Is it worth it? Only one can answer for himself. Does one bind only oneself? No, but only oneself determines whether he will let himself be bound.

  3. Mary, This is a profound statement. Is it yours or a quote from elsewhere? It is ever so true, but few realize it. Press on, Pop
