What could be better than the word FREE?

The word "FREE" has so many uses and conjures up so many thoughts, but all of them are positive thoughts.For instance, as I think of the word 'free' these things come to my mind:
  • Free from Debt!
  • Free to be myself!
  • Free to love!
  • Free to laugh!
  • Free to learn and grow!
  • Free to Dance!
  • Free from the past!
Even when it is attached to an item or getting something for nothing, the word is uplifting:
  • Free for the asking.
  • Free gift.
  • Free to a good home.
The only time this word is used that I think *might* be taken negatively is in this phrase: "No free lunch." The colloquialism that means we have to work for what we want. Even then, it's not really negative, but more cautionary. It's not negative to have to work to earn something. Good, honest, hard work makes what we earn have value and meaning outside of simply being a possession. The key is to own the possessions (even if just a few) but not let the possessions own us.I'd like to share something for free with the readers here....Free Videos and Recipes for Money Saving Ideas. Just sharing and helping others is free-ing!Thank you for the Blessings!Donna

Your post, Donna, made me think of an old spiritual:

"Free at last, free at last, I thank the Lord, I'm free at last."

And that's never a bad thought :)
