我親愛的朋友們，我們非常地愛你們。
當你們許多人在慶祝一個紀念自由的節日（註：指美國獨立紀念日）時，讓我們來探討一下什麼是真正的自由、如何獲得自由，以及自由如何為你們提供最好的服務。因為儘管你們每個人都真心渴望自由，但人們往往太容易就把自己的力量、思想，以及自行思考、辨別與選擇的能力「外包」出去了。
然而，一旦你意識到這種傾向，要重新收回自己的力量、獨立思考，並擁抱心靈、身體、情感和靈魂的真正自由，其實也同樣容易。
通常，自由是被定義在你想從什麼之中解脫出來（Free “from”）。你想免於暴政、免於疾病，並免於被那些想支配你的人所控制。這很美好，但如果你無法將焦點放在你渴望「自由地去」體驗（Free “to”）什麼，你在能量上就會一直與那些你想擺脫的事物糾纏不清。
假設你不喜歡你的工作或生活現狀。你可能會在工作中感到受壓迫，被一個不在乎你福祉的老闆或其他人掌控；被那些你必須照顧的人束縛；或者受制於一個控制你收入的體制。當你讀到這裡時，無論這些話在當時有多麼真實，你已經能感受到這種陳述所帶來的禁錮感。把焦點放在你想從什麼之中「解脫」，在能量上就會把你與它綁在一起。
相反地，如果你將焦點放在一個精神真理上——你擁有自由，可以與仁慈的宇宙合作，去創造你喜愛的工作與境遇——只要將你的能量和注意力對準你渴望體驗的事物即可。你有自由一邊愛著你所照顧的人，一邊憧憬著一個更以自身渴望為中心的未來。你有自由去關注此時此刻生活中那些微小卻令人滿意的部分。與其抱怨你想「擺脫」什麼（這會把你與它綁得更緊），不如開始談論你「有自由去創造」什麼。你可以想像擁有更多自由時會是什麼感覺。你有自由去期待更好的境遇。你越是這樣做，你就越能自由地將自己調頻到你想體驗的境遇中。
你們許多人已經親身經歷過這點。你離開了一份不喜歡的工作或一段不對勁的關係，卻發現自己很快又陷入了類似的境遇。你當時沒有意識到，雖然你身體上離開了那個人或那個環境，但你已經在心智上把自己與它牢牢綁在了一起。藉由频繁地關注那些你很高興能「擺脫」的事情，你對它的關注是如此徹底，以至於你再次把它吸引了過來。
直到某個時刻，你真正徹底不再去想你所離開的一切。你不再去想它的不公，也不再想它帶給你的痛苦。你厭倦了去捍衛自己擁有更好的權利。而當你放鬆下來，開始享受生活時，更好的事物便開始出現了。你願意將自由意志聚焦在你想「自由地去」體驗什麼，而不是想從什麼之中「解脫」，這開啟了新的機會之門，激發你探索新的興趣，並將全新類型的人帶入你的生活中。
同樣地，你們許多人曾被「困在」照顧一位脾氣不好的病人這件事上。只要你還在與這個處境對抗或心生怨恨，它就會持續困擾你。但在某個時刻，你可能決定放手，單純去愛你所照顧的人，甚至不管他們的壞脾氣。這時，他們便不再能控制你。你對自己的感覺變好了。而當他們和你最終都從這個處境中獲得解脫時，你早已在心靈上自由了，並且能夠毫無遺憾地向前迈进。
那麼，究竟什麼是自由？是逃離你不喜歡的事物的能力嗎？也許部分是吧，但在我們看來，自由存在於你能去思考那些讓你快樂、啟發你並吸引你的事物的能力中。
自由存在於一步一腳印創造改變的能力中，存在於與一個希望你體驗充滿愛的生活的仁慈宇宙合作的能力中。它是在此時此地發現美好，同時又期待著更多美好的能力。
親愛的孩子們，自由是上天賜予你的權利，讓你去與任何你喜歡的事物調頻，並藉此將它吸引到你身邊。
使用你的自由意志去吸引你想要的事物，感覺起來就是自由。使用同樣的自由意志去關注你不想要的事物，感覺起來就是束縛。不論在哪種情況下，你其實都是自由的。
因此，在這麼多人慶祝自由之際，請提醒自己：你永遠是自由的。無論身處何種境遇，無論周圍是什麼樣的人，你都擁有自由意志與能力，去從現實中看見機遇，或是看見禁錮。你有自由去關注讓你快樂的事，也有自由去關注讓你痛苦的事。你有自由滿懷期待地展望未來，也有自由去譴責今天擺在你眼前的現實。
若能在今天明智地運用你的自由意志，便能引領你在明天獲得更大、更喜悅的自由。
願你能自由地去愛，自由地看見令你快樂的事，並自由地期待著比你今天所知還要更好的未來。
上帝祝福你們！我們非常非常地愛你們。

Message from the Angels: Freedom Between the Ears

My dear friends, we love you so very much,
As many of you celebrate a holiday commemorating freedom, let us examine what freedom really is, how to achieve it, and how it best serves you. For as much as you all truly do want freedom, it is all too easy to outsource your power, your thoughts, and your ability to think, discern, and choose for yourselves.
It is just as easy, however, once you become aware of these tendencies, to reclaim your power, think for yourself, and embrace true freedom of mind, body, heart, and soul.
Often, freedom is defined in terms of what you want to be free “from.” You want to be free from tyranny, disease, and the control of those who want to have their way with you. And that is beautiful, but if you can’t find a focus on what you want to be “free to” experience, you will remain energetically entangled with all that you want to be “free from.”
Suppose you don’t enjoy your job or life situation. You might feel oppressed at work, controlled by a boss or others who don’t care about your well-being, tied to those you must caretake, and at the mercy of a system that controls your income. As you read this, you can already feel the confinement of such statements, no matter how true they might be at the time. The focus on what you want to be “free from” ties you, energetically, to it.
What if, instead, you were to focus on a spiritual truth—you are free to create work and situations that you love in cooperation with a benevolent universe—simply by aiming your energy and attention toward that which you wish to experience. You are free to love those in your charge while dreaming about a future more centered on your own desires. You are free to focus on what little bits of life are satisfying right now. Instead of complaining about what you wish to be “free from,” which ties you to it, you can start to talk about what it is you are free to create. You can imagine what it will feel like to feel more freedom. You are free to anticipate a better situation. The more you do so, the more you attune yourself, freely, to the situations you want to experience.
Many of you have already experienced this firsthand. You left a job or a relationship you didn’t like, only to find yourself in a similar situation once again. You didn’t realize it, but you had bound yourself to the person or situation you were leaving, even though you left it physically. By maintaining a frequent focus on what you were glad to be “free from,” you focused on it so thoroughly that you attracted it once again.
At some point, you were truly done thinking about what you left. You were done thinking about the injustice of it and the pain it inspired within you. You became tired of defending your right to have better. And as you relaxed and began to enjoy your life, bet ter started to appear. Your willingness to focus your free will on what you were “free to” experience instead of what you were “free from” opened new doors of opportunity, inspired you to explore new interests, and brought new types of people into your life.
Likewise, many of you have been “stuck” caretaking someone who wasn’t a kind patient. As long as you struggled with the situation or hated it, it continued to bother you. But at some point, you may have decided to just love the person you cared for, even in spite of their bad moods. No longer were they in control of you. You felt better about yourself. And by the time both they and you found freedom from the situation, you were already free and able to move forward without regret.
So what is freedom? Is it the ability to get away from what you don’t like? Partially, perhaps, but as we see it, freedom exists in the ability to think about what pleases you, inspires you, and draws you to it. Freedom exists in the ability to create change one step at a time and the ability to work in cooperation with a benevolent universe that wants you to experience a life that feels like love. It is the ability to find what is good here and now while anticipating more.
Freedom, dear ones, is your God-given right to attune to anything you please and thus draw it to you.
Using your free will to attract what you want feels like freedom. Using that same free will to focus on what you don’t feels like bondage. In all cases, you are free.
So, as so many of you celebrate freedom, remind yourself that you are always free. No matter the circumstance or the people around you, you have the free will and the ability to look at reality for opportunity or confinement. You have the freedom to focus on what pleases you or to focus on what does not. You have the freedom to look forward with anticipation or to decry what is in front of you today.
When wielded wisely, using your free will today can lead to greater and more joyful freedom tomorrow.
May you be free to love, free to see what pleases you, and free to look forward to even better than you know today.
God Bless You! We love you so very much.
— The Angels
