Spiritual Journey To Reach the Light

We need to die
as many times as necessary,
to be reborn as many others...
Life is made up of many deaths,
and the death simply of many lives...
This fundamental principle,
I conceive by heart...
I've lived and died countless times...
Journey companions,
we are born and we die,
meet and separate
perennially... but one day
we will be another structure...
No need to be born or die...!

Freedom of Speech

Freedom of speech is not what we want to hear
Freedom of speech is harsh criticism we bear
Let the critics speak without fear
Freedom of speech is the fundamental principle of expression
Let's not oppress speakers by giving them concession.
Note. Abusive language is inappropriate.
