born free......

Born free,
as free as the wind blows,
as free as d grass grows,
Born free to follow your heart!
And beauty surrrounds u,
The world still astounds u,
Its time to look at the stars!
Youre free as a roaring tide,
So wheres the need to hide?
and life is worth living ....coz u're born free!!!

Watched this movie made in the 80s i guess titled 'born free'....awesum watch for e one! The song above is from the movie..... The song, as is the movie, is soul-stirring ....coz its exhorts us to free ourselves of any baggage - emotional, mental, physiological, social that we carrry within us..
It forces us to realise dat we need to get back to d nature we were born with - fearlessness - a baby doesnt know dat a lizard is as creepy as for eg i make it out to be! And trust.... Which comes easily to a kid and innocence and curiosity/inquisitiveness abt e thing...
As we grow up (it shd actually be grow down or de-grow!) we tend to lose our original nature and freedom and take on a shadow ....accumulate clouds of fear around us....fear of loss, fear of pain, fear of failing, fear of the unknown.....
I donno how this can reverse....(esp when the world is d way it is)....but then the world is made of u and me...and him n her...and in our true selves we're not bad....coz we're born free of all evils n, fears! So lets all collectively give this our best shot and maybe just maybe...one day, we'll all be able to live free, truly free ....
Coz .....yep u guessed it....coz we're born free! :)
p.s. My first day of veganism tode went fyn...i know the road ahead is not easy and there are temptations galore....but we shall overcome! :D














coz u're born free
