Freedom from hunger:
Can we learn to make sure everybody has enough to eat?  We have the ability to do this, will we ever do it?





Freedom from being homeless:

There are ways to make sure that all people have a safe and secure place to live.  Will we ever start to make sure that all have a dwelling of their own that they want and like?




Freedom from fear:

All people should be able to live without being afraid of being attacked just because they are “different” from others.




Freedom from hatred:

Freedom to see that all people are beloved children of God.  Will we ever learn this truth?  Will we ever learn to treat each other in God’s love?




Freedom from war:

Freedom to live without the fear of bullets or bombs coming in and destroying all that has been built and destroying many lives.  Can we ever learn to live together in peace and love?





Freedom to live:

Freedom to live where we want and with whom we want to be with and no one to tell us we are wrong.  How long will it take for us to learn how to live this way?




Freedom to be:

Freedom to be who we are without question or other people condemning us.  How long will it take for this to happen?




Freedom to love:

Freedom to love who we are truly attracted to without someone telling us how wrong we are to love that person.  Can we ever learn to let others love whoever is best for them?




Freedom to worship:

In the way that is best for who you are.  No one has the right to tell anybody how they are to worship or pray.




Freedom: 

Freedom just to be who you are. 
And let nobody tell you that you can’t be your authentic self because that is a lie!  You and all people were created as you are right now.
