free-choice

I am exactly who I am choosing to be. Should I change my choice, the universe will always be there to assist me.

... how terrible is the pain of the mind and heart when the freedom of mankind is suppressed!

True love is built on free will and free choice, not control and manipulation.

We grow up in a belief system according to which children should always make their parents proud and happy (instead of making themselves proud and happy) - and that__ unfortunately the belief system in most cultures.

That__ not our role here, provide our parents with a __uccess story_ to share at gatherings. Our role here is to contribute the best we can to the society. Use our talents and make sure we add the greatest value possible to other people__ lives.

An approach, according to which children should fulfil their parents_ dreams/ do everything in order to make their parents happy/ provide their parents with a peace of mind, or whatever they want for themselves - because they owe it to them for all those years in which their parents took care of them - is utterly selfish.

Parents were good to us, gave us a lot, took care for us when we couldn__ have taken care for ourselves, wanted the best for us, continue to care about us and our future, but none of it is good enough a reason to fulfil their dreams/ do everything in order to make them happy/ provide them with a peace of mind, or whatever they want for themselves.
