The Freedom
Freedom to me means, when you observe your material being from the outside, from above and it doesn't affect you spiritually, because you know that it's only a small ten percent of your being at the most and whatever happens to you it's a necessity for you to learn to deal with the situation.
In prison, in the harshest hell, in the midst of the greatest suffering, if your soul soars free, if you just listen, you are free.
If your worries don't scar your face, if you find a way out of every situation, if you fall and get up, if you stay positive no matter what, if hope and love never leave you and they are with you until your last breath, you are free.
If you don't want to own anyone, to control anyone, if you know that everything is right and everything is happening as it should, if you are in a lotus position in your mind, smiling wisely at events, you are free.
If you know it doesn't matter, it's all a game and you're happy to participate, if you are grateful and thankful, if you don't dwell on the past, if you don't worry about the future, if you can live in the present moment, you are free.
If you were born a beggar and you're begging on the corner, but your eyes are shining, because you know it's okay to be imperfect, but inside you're at peace, calm and quiet, you're free.
When you know you are in control of your destiny and your thoughts are realized, because you are the result of them, when you embrace yourself and feel, you know, all is one, you are free.
If you accept everything and everyone as they are and you know they are you, if you know that you have drawn every event in your life for yourself and you alone are responsible for it and no one else, you are free.
If you don't build walls around yourself, if you flow with the happy existence, if your soul is not dependent on anyone or anything, if you no longer have to forgive, because you accept everything, if your thoughts are in harmony with your beliefs and actions, you are free.
The Love
The Power Of Thought
Love begins with thought. We become what we think about. Love-filled thoughts create love-filled lives and love-filled relationships. Our beliefs and thoughts about others and ourselves can be changed by positive affirmations. If you want to love someone, you have to consider their needs, wants and expectations. Having a vision of your ideal partner will help you recognize them, when you meet them.
The Power Of Respect
You cannot love someone, if you have not respected them before. We have to respect ourselves first and foremost. To have respect for ourselves, we have to ask ourselves: "What do I respect about myself?" To respect ourselves for others - even those we don't like - we ask ourselves: "What do I respect in this person?"
The Power Of Giving
If you want love, you simply have to give it. The more love you give, the more you get. To love is to give a part of yourself, without asking for payment and without conditions. Do good deeds, just like that! Before entering into a lifelong relationship, ask yourself not what the other person has to give to you, but what you have to give to the other person. The secret recipe for lifelong, happy, loving relationships is this: never look at what you can get, always look at what you can give.
The Power Of Friendship
To find true love, you must first find a true friend. To love means not looking at each other, but looking together in the same direction. To truly love someone, we must love them for who they are, not what they look like. Barrenness is the breeding ground, where love can come to life. If you want to bring love into a relationship, you must first bring friendship into it.
The Power Of Touch
Touch is one of the most powerful expressions of love, overcoming inhibitions and strengthening relationships. Touch changes our physical and emotional state and makes people more sensitive to love. Touch can heal the body and warm the heart. When you open your arms for a hug, you open your heart.
The Power Of The "Leave Them Free" Principle
If you love someone, set them free, if they return to you, they are yours, if they don't, they were never yours. Even in truly loving relationships people need room to move. If you want to learn to love, you first have to learn to forgive and get rid of past hurts and pains. To love means: to get rid of fears, prejudices, ego and reservations.
The Power Of Words
We can change our lives by communicating openly and honestly. When we nurture our relationship with our partner, we call it love. We value the one we love and let them know it clearly. Never be afraid to say I love you. Take the opportunity to praise when we can. Remember to show your love for the one you love, because tomorrow may not be another opportunity to do that.
The Power Of Commitment
If we can be committed and our commitment is reflected in our thoughts and actions, then love becomes real love. In a true loving relationship, we must always be committed. We must never give up our commitment.
The Power Of Passion
The passion will keep the flame alive and will never let it die down. We are only able to love someone with passion, if are committed, give joy, show interest and excited in our relationship. Passion can be reborn with the events of the past, that we lived through and live them through again. Surprises create passion. Love and happiness are the same live with passion every day.
The Power Of Trust
Trust is the most important thing in a true love relationship. Lack of trust can make our partner unsettled and will be full of fears and conjure. If we trust we behave the way as if our relationship would never end. If you can ask yourself the question: can I really trust in my partner with closed eyes and without any conditions? If the answer is yes, then your relationship will be filled with joy and true love for a long time if not for your entire life.

Very true. Love always relates with freedom. Because freedom is seen in two ways in a relationship: (1) when the two lovers feel the real freedom when they are together (2) setting the other person free because you love him/her.
Freedom co-exists with all concepts we could think of, and can be interpreted in many ways.
