The Joy of Independence
Note: Originally posted in 2008; brought from the archives in honor of our independence, especially the type of independence that boosts productivity and morale. Happy 4th!

We crave it. We demand it. We fight for it.
We resent those who keep us from it.
Sometimes we get it before we are ready and we flail or fail with consequences from trivial to tragic.
And then sometimes – we resent the ones who gave it to us too soon.
