സ്വതന്ത്രനാണു ഞാനെന്നൊക്കെ പറയുന്നതിൽ വാസ്തവത്തിൽ എന്തുകഴമ്പുണ്ട്? എത്രയോ മുൻ വിധികളുടെ അദ്രശ്യ ചരടുകളാൽ നിയന്ത്രിക്കപ്പെടുന്ന പാവക്കുത്തുകള്ളിലെ നിസ്സഹായരായ പാവകളെപ്പൊലെയാണു പലപ്പോഴും നമ്മൾ. ↗

The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have the more free you are. Poverty for us is a freedom. It is not mortification, a penance. It is joyful freedom. There is no television here, no this, no that. But we are perfectly happy. ↗

A current pejorative adjective is narcissistic. Generally, a narcissist is anyone better looking than you are, but lately the adective is often applied to those "liberals" who prefer to improve the lives of others rather than exploit them. Apparently, a concern for others is self-love at its least attractive, while greed is now a sign of the hightest altruism. But then to reverse, periodically, the meanings of words is a very small price to pay for our vast freedom not only to conform but to consume. ↗

Why would a person prefer the accusations of guilt, unworthiness, ineptitude - even dishonor and betrayal- to real possibility? This may not seem to be the choice, but it is: complete self effacement, surrender to the "others", disavowal of any personal dignity and freedom-on the one hand; and freedom and independence, movement away from the others, extrication of oneself from the binding links of family and social duties-on the other hand. This is the choice that the depressed person actually faces. ↗
