A longing to be free is only next to the desire to survive, for all life forms. For human beings this primal urge has evolved from the basic forms of freedom to more complex forms as we have moved ahead in the continuum of progress. Hemmed in from all sides - a small space, small family, smaller office cubicles, more chaos inside and outside - we yearn for freedom in strange forms today. Freedom from the middle class existence, freedom from ideology, from a superficial intellectualism, even from life. And each of us chooses our own way to achieve it.
