What I find even more interesting is when someone will strike up a conversation about how we are being screwed by the government, yet, "we have to do what's right and support them." At that point I get my star map out to verify what planet I am on. Oh, I think I used the word verify; that seems to be a government favorite. It seems as though they always have to verify who I am. SURPRISE! I have no I.D.

That's part of me being free! Yes, it does make life very interesting more often than not, but it makes it much more interesting and confusing to those who ask to see it. The look on their face is priceless, especially to those who falsely believe they have authority over me. Of course that doesn't stop them from violating what I perceive to be my God given rights as a human being. But I've never been in jail either. People are afraid. They fear the very thing they seem to worship; government. What was once considered tyranny has now been translated into a healthy respect for the law and a responsibility to others (others as in government officials).

All sarcasm aside; it's a hard life. My family and I suffer a lot of hardship, ridicule, and strife. It's a cruel attempt by others to beat us back into the herd, but to no avail. When you gird yourself with freedom you will be hated and maligned. But I can promise you this; once you fully realize your freedom, the individual that you will have become, you will have a great conscience and you will not have to second guess yourself when challenged, and you will be challenged.

I am 52 years old with a wonderful wife and six wonderful freedom loving children. As long as we are able to endure and grow our family, I know that my children will produce more free people. I sleep good at night.

Freedom is the greatest adventure of a lifetime, and there ain't no going back to the herd.
