We Are Not Meant to Be Free

We Are Not Meant to Be Free



 I don’t know why people say they’re busy as if being busy is a choice. 

We’re meant to be busy.
 Life is business.
 Life is survival. 
 No one is supposed to be free ,not fully, not until death steals our motion.

 We are here to keep moving, to keep surviving. 
Freedom? 
That’s not the mission. 
Survival is. 

 There’s no perfect system waiting for us. No ideal space where we rest endlessly. Only motion, only effort, only the grind of putting things together while everything else keeps moving. 
 Don’t tell me you’re waiting to be free before you act. 
You move while the storm is raging.
 You fix the ship while sailing. 
That’s the code. 
 Yes, rest is part of the rhythm, but even that—sleep, a break—is brief.

 Leisure is a comma, not a period. 
We are not meant to live in pause.
 So the next time someone says, “I’m busy,” understand: That’s the point.

 We all are. We all have to be. 
Because the only time we’re truly free is when we’re asleep— or gone.
