Like Happiness, Freedom too is a myth. Otherwise how do we explain that as long as man is a slave to desire, ambition and necessity, the effort to try and unshackle him will never be realized?

I guess we may be able to diminish our struggle for survival, had we instead of fighting for a country, fought for the earth to make it a better place to live (and die) in it.

“It is lonely at the top’’. Most people believe in this statement.
Let us take an unusual take. Very few people no doubt reach the top. This could be because very few people care to take a trip further than the run of the mill course. It may well be that there might be a lot of space at the top
Most of them appear to be content and pleased with their accomplishments and thus restricts themselves to the boundary where excellence starts.

Here is another statement: “The dignity of labour.”
People keep talking about the dignity of labour and about how man is recognized and accepted because of his (hard) work.
Here is another different take on work. Work is indispensable, but only the ‘poor human earthly condition’ makes it so. The dignity is not in labour. The dignity is in leisure. Leisure is directly associated with independence and freedom. More of leisure means more of freedom. A person who does not believe in ‘The dignity of Leisure’ does not have much independence. And if one still takes another look at work, one may discover that most works are irrational, detrimental, imprudent, depraved and pointless.
