Took me awhile but then it dawned on me. “Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light …” The United Sates of America is a country where we are free. But what does that have to do with the meaning of life? We are free to pursue happiness. You recognize the idea from the Declaration of Independence.
However, in the days when the Declaration was first written, to pursue happiness had more of the meaning to practice happiness. So, we are free to practice happiness. We can do the things we wish as long as we harm no one else (that is, for the most part, break no laws). We are free to be what we wish to be: good, bad or indifferent. (We may get locked up for doing bad things.) But we can strive to a great contributor to our culture. Or we can be a couch-potato all our lives and no one will really hassle us about that. The point, of course, is that there are many places in the world where this cannot be. People are not free. (Indeed, in some countries, women are slaves, pure and simple. Certainly, we have and had exceptions in our own country too. People for reasons of their religion, race, culture, etc., have been enslaved or abused. We cannot simply gloss that over and pretend it never happened.)
However, I believe we can say, and I hope I am right, we are the freest people on earth.
Now, I need to go further and say to you that no matter your circumstances, you are free in your spirit and can be free in your spirit. The seat, the throne of happiness is your spirit as connected to The Source of All That Is. In this freedom, you are truly free. Short of torture beyond endurance, no one can take your happiness away from you because it resides in your spirit. There have even been incidents where persons of extreme spiritual resolve had kept their happiness even in torture beyond normal human fortitude.
Life’s meaning is found in being happy. Being happy is found in your spirit. Your spirit is found as your engage yourself with The Source. Freedom reminds us all of the meaning of life, to be happy.
I wholeheartedly invite comments and concerns.
