Here are my thoughts:

“Freedom is what we do with what is done to us.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre

I have found some of the greatest freedom of expression among those who have had the hardest of lives. JE Lillie

Here lies the evening sky over Galway Bay

“Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don’t care, I’m still free
You can’t take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain’t comin’ back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can’t take the sky from me
There’s no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can’t take the sky from me…”
― Mutant Enemy/Joss Whedon

“He whom the Son sets free is free indeed.” John 8:36
