Independence of the Self

There is no point in doing something, simply for the sake of doing it. There is no need to yield under the invisible rules of the clock, nor that of society. Simply because it is time to go to bed, does not mean you have to go to bed, simply because it is time to wake up does not mean you have to wake up.

There is always a choice at every single moment in your life, never do things simply because it is expected of you or that you think is expected of you. Do things when you want to.

Never yield to any rules not made by your own mind, the only law that should really be taken into consideration are the ones that you have chosen or that you have made for yourself.

True independence comes from realizing that you are your own guide, your own master. you hold the choice to every single decision in your life. And in the end it is you that those choices will affect. Make those choices but always be aware that you will have to take responsibilities for them.

That realization is what allows man to grow and to evolve. It allows him to move on to the next stage of development. Relying on a rule that is not of your own choosing? That is tantamount to death.

Because without choice, there is no life.
