   @xgranade > Under the GPL series of licenses, there is a freedom I do not have, namely the freedom to subjugate others.

   To call an abusive action a freedom is absurd.

   "Never forget, the only one holding back your potential potential is you!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

   We all have potential.

   It's what you do with that fact that matters.

   I know far too many people who give up on their potential. It's easy to do - there are so many things in the way. And yet, by doing so, they never see the potential in their potential. Yes, I mean to use the word twice!

   I know in far too many cases I haven't accomplished what I might have accomplished if I had just pushed a little harder. I'm aware that the potential in our potential can often be one of our greatest untapped assets, and if we recognize it for what it is, we can push ourselves a little further.

   Think about it!

   We all have the potential to chase our dreams.

   To learn new things.

   To try bold ideas.

   To take big risks.

   To develop new skills.

   And in doing so, to achieve our wildest imagination.

   We all have the potential to care about others.

   To serve our communities.

   To stand up for what's right.

   To call out what's wrong.

   To heal and help.

   To help those who are weak.

   And to try to get help from those who are strong.

   And to imagine brighter futures for everyone.

   To persist through setbacks.

   To persevere when tired.

   To overcome the big obstacles.

   And to thrive in the uncertainty.

   To rebuild what's broken.

   To restart after failure.

   To unlearn the bad habits.

   And develop better ones.

   To pivot when needed.

   To prioritize what matters.

   To challenge ourselves more.

   And to believe we can do it.

   To commit to our goals.

   To hope and act.

   To finish what we started.

   And to abandon what we shouldn't have.

   To start when necessary.

   To start right now!

   ----

   Futurist Jim Carroll is a big believer that everyone has potential in their potential!

   It was said that if someone in love stood on the balcony in the moonlight, the #scales would fall from their eyes & they'd see their beloved as they truly were. This brought joy to some, heartbreak to others.

   To Magdalena the maid it brought continual wonder at the sorts of scales that people shed, which she swept up the following mornings. Hard, translucent fish scales; opaque, patterned snake scales. And today, the fragile, bright scales that graced butterflies' wings.
