Blaming

If a person says, "He made me angry", "The clock awakened me", "The fire burned me", etc. would this be misconception, an attempt to escape responsibility for self by blame placing? Would this mean that before a person could enjoy a better life that everything else in the world would have to change? Is this a rather large order to be filled before a person could be happy and enjoy living?

Bits and pieces from school work

What one pursues, what one seeks, is a feeling of freedom. However nearly everyone pursues freedom wrongly. Each seeks to be free from something but real freedom is freedom to.

Bits and Pieces from School Work

Freedom and Responsibility: the two sides of the same idea that results in a driving force and inner peace at the same time.

Freedom to: Responsibility, able to respond by being free to choose what is worthwhile.

Free from: Trying to escape responsibility by struggle, resistance and conflict.

Virtue

If I must not do something because it is wrong -- and I don't do it because I think it is wrong -- I have no virtue.

When I know that I am free to,  yet I realize it is not to my advantage, I have virtue.

Virtue is freedom.
