18. Freedom

Dear friends,
with great sadness (and maybe a little bit of pleasure) I have to let you know that this is the last blog post you are reading from The Capture Challenge. I have devoted ten weeks of my last semester at the American University in Bulgaria to this class blog and I dare to say I do not regret a single thing in that period. As hard and as time-consuming as it was, it was interesting, it was fun, it was different. I even felt special – probably because of the participatory culture and the social motivation, as Shirky says. 

For this last official post, I chose the topic Freedom. It was the freedom of choice that I was given that led to the overall idea of the blog. It was the freedom of doing my own research and choosing my own sources that made the blog an interesting experience for me as well. And it is freedom that I want to conclude it with as Freedom is what I wish to you from now on.

I hope you get the freedom we all desire at your workplace.  I wish you to be free from possessions to sense the real happiness. And I hope you get the feeling of freedom when you stand on the edge of cliff. [Remember, the freedom is in the concept of NOT falling!]

Cisco Beach, Nantucket, USA

I hope you stand on the shoreline with your feet barely touching the water. Or maybe not at all. I hope you stand careless and relaxed, motivated by the simplicity in the air. I wish you the purity of the ocean  to be your muse, the color of the seaweeds to be your inspiration.

 Be open, be calm, be free!
