Freedom

"You come alone, you die alone. Between birth and death, of course you can deceive yourself that someone is with you...but this is just make believe. You come alone, you go alone; you are alone between birth and death.
And I'm not saying that you cannot love a man or a woman. In fact, when two independent, free people, who take responsibility on their own shoulders, meet, there is immense beauty to it. Nobody is a burden to the other...You can be together but your aloneness remains untouched, pure, crystal-clear...
You never trespass on each other's territories. You can enjoy each other just because you are separate. The more separate you are -- the more clearly it is understood that you are alone, she is alone -- the more there is a possibility of a great meeting of two alonenesses, two purities, two individuals."
(Osho)
