It’s brutal living in a world where goodness has to be defended. It’s existentially alarming to live in a world where expressing your beliefs becomes a problem not only for those in power but for those around you as well. No one really wants you to be you. That’s why it’s ever so important to embrace and celebrate those ideals that give you a direction. Because once a person’s ideals have been discarded and dismantled, there’s little left of them other than their external shell.

A person without ideals is a person with no direction. And a person with no direction is lost. So keep a tight rein on yourself. And know where you’re going.

Keep your free will free or you’ll just become someone’s slave.
