My online open notes to myself in view of the world.

Freedom
Libertarianism didn't used to be radical.
Sometimes, I randomly say 'freedom' to break a silence, or as a greeting, or any time really. Occasionally, when I do this, somebody gets confused and says, 'Freedom?' like they've never heard of it.
I now know why I say it. Many people don't know what I mean when I say 'freedom,' and it gives me a chance to tell them. Freedom is the liberty to say what you want, think what want, be what you want, love, hate, do, avoid, and try to change whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt anybody else.
I promise not to go too overboard on these feel good posts. I don't promise that I might go overboard in my support of freedom.
I value God, Freedom, Personal Improvement, and Honesty.
My favorite books are the Bible, Wealth of Nations, and Rich Dad Poor Dad. My Books My Profile
