TO GRASP FREEDOM OR NOT TO GRASP FREEDOM
Location
FREEDOM A WORD THAT CARRIES GREAT MEANING
YET MANY KNOW NOT WHAT THE VALUE OF IT IS
WE FIGHT FOR IT DAILY YET HAVE NO IDEA OF THE MAGNITUDE
THE IDEA THAT WE ARE FREE IS NOT A NEW ONE TO ME
HOWEVER THE MATTER OF FACT THAT NONE FULLY KNOWETH
JUST WHAT A GIFT, A BLESSING IT IS
DAILY WE FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHT
TO WORSHIP, TO SPEAK, AND FOR MANY YEARS TO VOTE
YET AFTER FIGHTING FOR SO LONG TO VOTE HOW MANY ACTUALLY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS?
SCHOOL SHOOTINGS ARE OCCURING MORE THAN EVER BEFORE, YET OUR CHOICE IS TO OUTLAW GUNS INSTEAD OF TAKING CARE OF THE REAL PROBLEM.
WE PROTECT OUR PRESIDENT, POLICE, AND OTHER OFFICERS AND “IMPORTANT” PEOPLE WITH GUNS YET PROTECT OUR KIDS WITH SIGNS THAT SAY, “NO GUNS ALLOWED!”
WHAT GOOD DOES IT IF WE DO NOT TAKE A LOOK AT EVERY ASPECT OF OUR FREEDOM AND SEE WHERE WE'RE REALLY GOING WRONG?
POSSESSING GREAT VALUE YET REFUSING TO USE IT IS TO THROW IT IN THE TRASH OR DOWN THE DRAIN
WHAT ARE WE DOING TO SHOW THAT WE FULLY COMPREHEND THIS GIFT THIS SACRIFICE?
WE DON'T HAVE IT BECAUSE WE DESERVE IT, BUT INSTEAD HAVE IT BECAUSE IT WAS GIVEN WITH NO THOUGHT OF SELFISHNESS IN EXISTENCE.
TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE IS TO SAY TO GRASP OUR FREEDOM OR NOT TO GRASP OUR FREEDOM.
WHICH IS FOR YOU I CANNOT SAY, BUT I DO KNOW THAT TO NOT GRASP WHAT WAS GIVEN IS TO AGAIN THROW IT AWAY.
SO I ASK YOU AGAIN TO GRASP YOUR FREEDOM OR NOT TO GRASP YOUR FREEDOM?
THAT MY PEOPLE IS THE QUESTION!
