Weekly Photo Challenge: Free Spirit
by frizztext
FREE SPIRIT: If you discover, that you have a free spirit, able to realize your own dreams, climbing up using your developed talents: then this will be the step into freedom. A dictator makes many slaves to follow him. An individual free spirit feels: I am what I am. No beasts above me. No governor, no priest, no dictator. I recently read, that atheists in the USA have some problems to be accepted in a social network. As an European I have to add: That’s not good: Have respect for those who are free, even if they are atheists or escape from the army as deserteurs. Maybe they can see clearer – because they have a free spirit!

view my slide show, featuring the whole action: and you will notice, that she is not alone. Maybe this is my subtle message: it’s easier to do such a job with a friend, NOT alone. Being alone is sad…
[P.S.: background music to the slide show: me on rhythm guitar
and my most talented friend Luzz, who has a real free spirit]

Some don’t like that,
but that’s the way I am.”

free like a bird – what you can’t feel in a mole-hill …
I like this one
I like what you say here.
Religion aside, I find it freeing to see beautiful photos of strong women who still have their clothes on. Gorgeous shot.

dear Wolfgang,

your sunset paraglider high above the clouds
for sure feels free like a bird:

talkin’ ’bout a revolution
with my grandson!
Love this one!
Very sweet picture
Cool! Did you ever realize you have the same ear´s shape?
I’m surprised – but I think you are right, I’m astonished!

thank you for:
Conformity is the norm in China
and I think being a free spirit
is certainly not encouraged.

Yet this horse seems to show spirit
and is perhaps bucking against
whoever dares to rein him in.
and FREE SPIRIT for me:

no free spirit is forced to make suicide …

in a mole-hill of depression …

Great free spirit ilustrations!
Great shot and sentiments! And lovely music as always
I’m afraid of heights but admire those who can be free to do so.
This is a great photo showcasing free – dom of spirit. Well done !!!!
Nice blog.
Love it all. Super photo, perfect music, wonderful sentiment. Free to be…
Frizz, the fun and freedom in both pictures and music are so full of wonderful spirit. I have always felt it quite sad that fear of death, and subsequent eternal damnation reigned in by religious restrictions and promises of reward in the after life, should rob so many of life’s ultimate gift – free spirit.

An important and poignant message. Intolerance frustrates me. I will probably always remember the way that you said it: “Have respect for those who are free, even if they are atheists…Maybe they can see clearer – because they have a free spirit!”
My free spirit wishes I were in a sailplane right now! And I do love climbing, also!
I just saw a penguin movie, Rose, they could not climb – but how they care for their penguin babies is a big challence for us human beings to climb to such a very high intensity-level!
Excellent work again my friend for this week theme
Great photo! I love it!
