Freedom

Paul D. refers to the rooster as free. Paul D. realizes that he will never truly experience freedom. Paul D. will always remember what he experinced, the fear he felt, the imprisonment he experienced. Aren't we all a little like Paul D. in some way? Fears imprison us. Fears keep us from experiencing all that we can. Fears and apprehensions hold us back. Our thoughts keep us prisoner. Often our thoughts do not allow for contrast. My thoughts do not allow for contrast. I am like Paul D. I was never a slave but to my own self. I am the only one that could hold myself back. No one else. Only me.
