The Five Freedoms

• The freedom to see and hear what is here instead of what should be, was, or will be.

• The freedom to say what one feels and thinks, instead of what one should.

• The freedom to feel what one feels, instead of what one ought.

• The freedom to ask for what one wants, instead of always waiting for permission.

• The freedom to take risks in one's own behalf, instead of choosing to be only "secure" and not rocking the boat.
