One of the greatest deceptions that was perpetrated on the western world was the idea that you only get 1 life.
This is all you get to make an impact, to shape the world into how you would prefer it. After that you're judged on your actions & then spend eternity being rewarded or punished accordingly.
This set of beliefs limits our total time horizon to 1 lifetime. It makes us fear death because we believe that it's the end of our earthly experience. YOLO baby!
I believe that free choice is fundamentally related to your ability to choose what to believe. Do you buy into the illusions presented or do you search deep within to find something that better resembles Truth? There's no right or wrong answer & no rush. You've an infinite number of lives & perspectives from which to experience this.
To exercise free will, to choose the reality that you prefer is a choice we each possess. Nobody can take this from you, not even with force.
I think we're at a juncture as a collective. A split seems to be forming among our collective realities. Everything over the last 2000 odd years has lead to this & the veil of deception is lifting. Ultimately the choice seems to come down to the internal frequency that you choose. Do you choose Love or Fear, Integration or Seperation? People aren't evil but both darkness & light can flow through every human. It all starts with examining & explicitly choosing your beliefs & definitions.
