What does freedom mean to you?
As my life goes through different season the word "freedom" has changed in meaning to me.
Freedom used to mean road trips, living free of responsibility, having the wind blow through my hair, being able to do what I wanted when I wanted.
I was living in a false sense of freedom.
Now, when I hear the word freedom is makes me cry. Freedom is realizing I can't do it on my own any more. It's realizing that I was so bound up in my "freedom" lifestyle that I was actually living a lie.
When I hear the word Freedom I hear the word Truth. I know it seems cliche, but when the Bible says in John 8 the Truth will set you free, it's not lying!!
When I hear freedom I hear transformation.
When I hear freedom I hear destiny.

Freedom means alot of the same things to me.
Freedom to love, forgive, be at peace, trust, just to name a few

A beautiful realization. I think that this is something to hang onto for dear life, to carry with you forever and never outgrow. This sentimate is something most people in our superficial world never open their eyes too.
ps:I hope you post again soon!

true.

I've been a little MIA on the blogosphere this last year (had a baby...things have been crazy), so I'm working on catching up with all of the blogs that I used to read on a regular basis (yours being one :) In effort to get back into the swing of things I'm giving away one of my hand knit hair bows, come enter to win! http://antikamoda.blogspot.com/2012/08/giveaway-hand-knit-bow.html
