That was brilliant Ben! This: "I'd go into the system looking for freedom and sooner or later I'd find myself imprisoned within the system." I can totally relate to that. While promising liberation and sometimes even salvation, systems are by default limiting. And yet most of us are drawn to the sense of safety and identity we get from them. At least initially. I believe this is partly due to social conditioning, but ultimately I think we do it because it takes courage and a certain degree of spiritual maturity to find your own way in life.
