1) what are you longing for?

2) we are, aren't we.

3) every expression of possibility or an idea, or of anything at all is limited at the very moment when it is expressed to what it is expressed. but is the freedom limited? if you cut off only one possibility, you get an unknown number of possibilities left. i think freedom is versatile (is that the word?).

3) Freedom in general? Maybe I mistakenly personify the word and imagine it being more and more bound and insulted by the result of my deliberations. We often say 'do I have the freedom to choose' as in 'is there room for manoeuver'. and once a decision has been made, that freedom for that 'subject' is reduced. So, like air or oxygen, freedom is, I suppose, unlimited - but in relation to us and our negotiations with ourself/ves and others, it is a finite resource.

2) that's what I think

1) Now, now...

3) oh, but isn't freedom what we imagine it to be? (and, yes, i can see what you mean, but the idealist in me says: "it doesn't have to be that way! everything is a matter of choice!"//interesting choice of words, ha)

1) tell me when you feel like it.

3) I suppose we have the freedom to imagine freedom to be whatever we want it to be.

BTW, once a long time ago, I had a dream that before I wanted to say anything, I had to brand the air with a cattle brander. Once, I was stood under that little arch, I had the right/freedom to speak.

Obviously, you can't brand air, and it means, I suppose, that nature (I'm not sure why I chose that word) is having difficulty supressing a snigger at our anguished chest beatings as to the nature of our definitions of freedom.
