Drabble Thursday
100 words on freedom
"Freedom? That's just some people talking." Josh chuckled "I was created as a slave and I'll die as a slave. There is nothing wrong with this... I've come to realize that there are things far more important than Freedom - Love, Friendship, Knowledge, Life." He ticked off each word on his fingers, before spreading his arms wide "If you have those why would you need Freedom?" He paused for a moment, and then he frowned as a new though occurred to him "The only times I`ve ever wanted to be free was when I couldn't fight for my friends and loved ones. There is nothing worse than standing on the sides as I watch everything collapsing around me. That's my prison - not being able to do a damn thing when it matters."
