Your Existing Rights


Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Are those still freedoms?

Simple yes or no question, right?

Yet not so simple.

Life..

Sure, you have your life (well one would assume such if you’re reading this), but is it unimpeded?

Which I have to say that it, neither is, nor is not.

Because there is potential for it.

For your life to be taken without justice.

And justice is the weight at which your life is the balance.

And that scale is not perfect.

It is but a measure to calculate right.

And that right being your life.

And you better be ready to fight tooth and nail for it.

Because they will try to take it.

Which brings us to your liberties, which they’ve been taking for quite some time.

These have been flying out the window ever since they’ve been recorded using that ‘justice tool’ to deem worthy or not for the world you live in.

Some choices you don’t make in your life, they make for you.

Most aren’t a bother, and some even quite helpful.

The specifics of us are being put together at a pace almost unstoppable.

Yet we continue onward and upward as long as we remain unimpeded.

And maintain peace through our pursuit of happiness.

But that’s next.

Our pursuit of happiness is next on the menu.

And to be robbed of the freedom of the right to pursue happiness would rob me of my life and my liberty.

See, the three are one.

At this one is you.

Your existence.

Consider these your existing rights.

Rights afforded to you because of the fact that you exist.

The right to be alive.

The right to live my life.

And the right to love living.

And shall no feature of this society stricken him of these.

Yet, we include ourselves in a society that exists to serve us.

But we, ourselves and society, are intolerant towards each other, which is ignorant because we both co-exist in this world and need to get along for the improvement of one another.

We need to be more tolerant towards each other.

We need diplomacy.

And consideration.

We need strength with gentleness.

Wit with wisdom.

We need passion and compassion.

And resilience and resolve.

We need understanding.

We need unity.

Togetherness.

And most importantly we need love and not hate.

Just love one another.

Not to be cliché, but why can’t we all just get along?

There is potential.

Potential for a lot of good.

We just need to be good to each other.

And work together.

But it’s an imperfect world so manage your expectations.

Who knows…

Tread lightly my friends.

And a safe return.
