Bom free. . Stay free foreword Man is born free. The boundless ceiling of Mother Nature's universe and the infinite limitations of his mind are his kingdom. He is free to wander like a rolling stone across the hills and valleys of the vast countryside, free to climb like a spiring rainbow to the summit of the highest mountain, free to open his heart and breathe deeply the vi- brant air of heaven. Man is as gentle as a soft, moonlit midnight, as violent as the roaring tide relentlessly pounding upon the ageless rocks. Man is as mysterious as the eerie shadows cast by the setting sun, as unpredictable as the mystic forces of the wind. He achieves because he is curious. Some undefinable, instinctive characteristic provokes man to reach out and grasp that which sets his soul aflame. Man never iinds comfort in the accomplishments of yester- day. His life is an endless search for under- standing, for expansion of his insight, and for gratihcation of his need to love and be loved. He is the judge in his own world court. Man alone will create his tomorrow, as man alone will overcome the trials of today. Man is born free, and must follow his heart. 2
