I am free

To be free...

To be free is to have choice and opportunity.

I am free to succeed or fail based on my own efforts.

I am free to choose my own destiny, be it for good or for ill.

I am free to love and to hate.

I am free to be kind and to be cruel.

I am free to believe what I believe to the exclusion of all other truths or voices around me,

And free to accept the consequences.

I am free.
