Is your life itself, from this all other values are derived.

Most precious thing in life is happiness.

And happiness is only real when shared.

Ask Sean Penn if you don't believe me.

We all have freedom of thought.

Perhaps you meant freedom of speech?

Do you really believe that?
What about consumerism; Subliminal advertising; Fashion; Culture;
Parental expectations; Work role playing; News and media; mental conditons; drugs; anorexia; food addiction; etc etc.

Do you really believe that you are not born free of mind?

Dude, wake up and smell the coffee. We all are born within a society that alienates us! Humans are social animals, hence we're all born within a society which "pressures" us to conform.

Now, I know you trully believe the speech of how beautiful is to have "freedom of thought", but perhaps you would like to stop for a while and think about what it means.

I'll let this one go, and let's all pretend that you said "freedom of speech", ok? 😉

That's quite a leap and not nearly as poetic as Rousseau's, "man is born free and everywhere is in chains."

I can imagine a society in which social animals are not pressured to conform. I don't live there; I live in the US. But...well... I'm sure it's possible!


most precious thing in the world:

pleasant weather

For some, it's "Freedom from Thought." Note how the liberals/Democrats kick you off the reservation whenever you stop clucking the liberal orthodoxy.
