Spiritual Perspective this July 4th


Reflections on Freedom – July 4th

Yesterday, the Republican-led House passed one of the most devastating spending bills in recent memory—one that celebrates wealth and power while further harming the vulnerable. Like many, I felt a wave of grief, anger, and helplessness.

What kind of freedom are we celebrating when so many are struggling to survive?
What kind of independence is this, if we cannot care for each other?

And yet—today, I return to a deeper truth.
Because real freedom isn’t handed to us by governments.
It’s something we remember in our bones.
It lives in the soul.

Spiritual freedom says: No matter what the outer world does, I can choose how I meet it.
I can meet cruelty with compassion.
I can meet injustice with fierce love.
I can meet despair with the quiet knowing that light is still here—and I am part of it.

This doesn’t mean bypassing the pain. It means transmuting it.

So on this Independence Day, I am declaring my soul's sovereignty.

I free myself from hopelessness.
I free myself from the illusion that the powerful always win.
I free myself from waiting for someone else to fix it.

Instead, I recommit to the real revolution:
The one that starts in the heart.
The one that whispers: You are here on purpose. Keep going. Keep loving. Keep rising.

May we never forget that true power is spiritual.
And when we act from that place, we become unstoppable.

In hope, in love—
Linda

Dear Reader I’ve been thinking a lot about courage lately. I won’t lie—pressing “publish” on my book took more courage than I expected. When you put your work into the world, you risk being judged… or even worse, being misunderstood.And yet—if we never take the leap, we never get to experience what’s possible. I wonder if you’ve ever held yourself back because of that same fear?(If so, you’re in good company. Most of us do.) Because I’m practicing what I teach, I decided to keep saying yes to...
