Independence Day.... Independence from a higher perspective

For whatever reason I am not one to celebrate holidays.   I find them a bit of a nuisance, except I liked having the day off from work when I worked full time.  Perhaps, it is the crowds, the noise, I really don’t know why I don’t like holidays.   So on this July 4th, I am going to write about independence from a higher perspective.   
I don’t have a date, and perhaps there isn’t a specific date I could point to but I consider my independence day to be the day that I decided that most of what our organizations give us is illusion, possibly downright lies and I wanted to find out the truth, what ever that might be.  A great many countries have holidays called “Independence day” and most of them refer to a date when some great battle or some declaration was made that freed them from the tyranny of a person or country.   I think the internet now has a great deal to do with more tyrants falling, more people around the world claiming their independence.   Take a look at your own life, what tyrants have control of your emotions, your life, your happiness?
Ask the questions, ask for help, decide you can overthrow those tyrants, habits, addictions, materialism, what ever they might be, and declare your own day of independence.   It’s a good feeling and will move you a long distance along your path of spiritual understanding.  You can choose to become the powerful loving being you were meant to be.
