Blogs From Eon, Record#001: The Road So Far...

Eon here,

I am very close now to restoring the #FreedomSignal. I've estimated that in 3 months time, we will be back on track. Full throttle, onward to a brighter horizon. Let us reflect and recall that long is the war - only by surviving it will we win.

I've mentioned before that there are resistance fighters everywhere; with their own voice, message, and reasons for their fight against tyranny. This fight cannot be won alone, we must unite under one banner; our light must align with others to lead the way. Notice I said "Unite", not become a collective.

Albert Camus once said:   "The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion." At what point, from it's peak - to it's fall, does a society fail? To the point that said quote becomes a reality? 

My Natural Law research mentions something about a "Social Contract." Referencing Aristotle and Cicero, Plato and others. Talking about man's reasoning and it's according with Nature. But that is not to be compare by John Locke's Natural Law Tradition, a theoretical hold that human beings are subject to a moral law. That morality is fundamentally about duty, the duty to each individual has to abide by the natural law. 

Thomas Hobbes created a similar approach when he based morality not on duty but on right, each individual's right to preserve himself, to pursue his own good- essentially, to do as he wishes. But I do no see these as theories, but more like a way of life. 

These ideas here, many by those that believe in a God(s), confirm one thing for me. One thing, and stands almost above all the rest:

That "I" decide...

I decide if I live by the sword

I decide if I read for wisdom

I decide if I live an abject life

I decide. I am the Captain of "My" destiny. My life, not written in stone, yet written by my hand. If that is not #Freedom, I do not know what is. There is still so much to learn.

But I want to know what YOU think. Where do you stand? How do you define freedom?
