Freedom

Freedom is a word we use to describe certain things that we are allowed to do. We are free to vote, free to speak freely, & free to practice any religion, but these do not give us the same kind of freedom as one gets from fulfilling one's duty. We teach our children The Principle of Human Freedom. We teach our children that to be free to choose we must accept responsibility for our choices. To accept responsibility for our choices means we accept our current condition of life or we choose to change it. As we make our choices in pursuit of Life, Liberty and Happiness; we recognize we must work hard and earn our own way. As we compete to improve our lives we must treat our fellow Human Beings with Dignity, Respect and Fairness. In return we expect to be treated also with the same Dignity, Respect and Fairness. Human Beings are the most precious of all known creations. Each individual must be treated with dignity, respect and fairness. The uniqueness of human life requires that where more than one individual is involved that each is given equal opportunity to grow to potential within the resources of the group. The growth to potential is fostered in an environment which recognizes each individual's responsibility to work hard and do their best and each individuals right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness while balancing this with the need to still provide for the common good of the group.
