Reverie: The Guise of Social Malaise

However you may see it (Independence Day or the 4th of July), the concept of personal Freedom is Universal and Revolutionary  

America's Declaration of Independence and its Bill of Rights were at one time, a social experiment. A treatise in Civil Liberties, and  it caught the attention of the entire Western World   

Clearly, there are those who would oppose these measures by  any means. They’re purpose... to frustrate the natural evolution  of Man and (according to Sartre), Man's state of Being  

Being:
The Existential point of view, was generally focused  on the condition of human existence according to philosophers of the 19th century


It encompassed both Man’s beliefs and religious views . . .

Included in that study were the states of action, thought, responsibility, and how we (the People) viewed the meaning and/or purpose of our Lives 

At the heart the argument is the proposal, that an Individual       
is solely responsible for the quality of Life’s Meaning and its condition… unconditionally!
