Morning Vibes With Dr. Jerry - the First
Hello and welcome to
#MorningVibesWithDrJerryTheFirst-Episode 5
Title: Are
You A Slave?
Yesterday I was reading an
enlightening write up by someone on the matter of slavery and I came across
this quote “I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if
only they knew they were slaves.” ---Harriet Tubman. And this took me back to
the History of Slave Trade as I studied it in the High School. I remembered how
in the first revolt of slaves against their Masters, some of the slaves who
thought they were "enjoying in their slavery" refused to join the
revolt and actually sabotaged the effort of the leaders which made them lose
their lives. And so when you hear about slavery, what comes to the fore in your
mind's eye? A picture of a man or woman in chains both on his/her arms and
legs? But do you know that slavery goes beyond the physical? Do you know that
even when we are not in physical slavery, we might be in mental slavery or
psychological slavery? Do you know that whatever we are addicted to makes us slaves?
If you are addicted to Sex, Alcohol, Food, Fashion, Religion, Ego, Talk,
Perfection, Seriousness, Social Media, Lack, just name it, these addictions do
not bind us with physical chains but they bind us with mental chains, that make
us think that we cannot do without them and that our lives would make no
meaning without them. But I tell you today that the day you let go of the
mental chains that bind you to these addictions, that is the day your freedom
would make sense. Make that day TODAY.
Until I come your way
