Simple, simple. These are some very good song lyrics, taken from "Australia" by The Manic street preachers, off of their album, "Everything must go". These lyrics mean so much to me. These lines are about breaking free, attaining freedom. Not trying to deal with problems that you can't help. Being unburdened, primal, tribal, happy, ecstatic. No mortgage, no taxes, no job. Just you, some animal skins, and the dirt. Loving the Sun, loving the Moon. Respecting everything and everyone. Living without all the trappings of our world as we know it. I think these words describe the ultimate stage of freedom. You can fly (nearly, metaphorically) run, 'till it hurts, but that doesn't matter, because you're free! Sleep for a while. not 6 hours, not 8 hours. just however long you need. sleep when you want, wake up when you want. Speak no words, because you don't need them. In Australia. A far off, untamed wilderness. The answer to life is not hoarding all your money. It's letting it all go, and not caring about it. Less IS more. The less you have, the freer you become. The less you Have, the less responsibilities you have, the less time you have to spend doing things you don't want to do, the less ignorant, fucked up motherfuckers you have to deal with. If all you want is freedom, then freedom is Australia.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
