How do we feel when we are "caged?"
Do we associate "caged" with the state of being bound to particular parameters with no hope of expanding our abilities and talents? Do we feel used and helpless? . . . Hopeless? . . . Do we feel we are not in a positive position to make decisions for ourselves without having to explain ourselves to those who disagree with us?
(Is this progress)?
Do we feel fearful when we are released from our cages of comfort? When things change in our environment, do we often, like people in physically and emotionally abusive situations, choose to have negative security instead of unbound freedom to test our own confidence?
Are we going to remain in the shadows of the past because we fear what the light will reveal?
America, stop saying Country First when the ones saying Country First are the people who live in fear, and don't know anything about living in prosperity.
Where is the "answer the phone at 3 a.m." potential?
Is it here?
