who are searching for true independence...
Independence of mind is not what you think but how you think.
Powerful words, these. It is in the how we think - whether we think conventionally and so get caught up in a web not of our making and which we viscerally rebel against; or whether we have allowed ourselves to break out of the bonds that we ourselves have created or allowed ourselves to be boxed into, and think out of the box/multidimensionally/radically/differently from the so-called norm...
For this we have to first find our core. It is only then that we have something to be true to, something to hang on to....kind of our North Star and this then would give us the strength to think the way WE want or feel or believe.
Not easy, but do-able...
