My Fellow Humans in Egypt, how wonderful that you have achieved your first goal! You have routed out a horrible leader. You are asking for Democracy, you are asking for freedom. It is a glorious day!

Everyone has an opinion. That's OK. That is human nature. You ask to be in this world on your own terms, that is very good, too. Advice is important, but your own choices are more so.

The hardest part of freedom is the side you play in it. Freedom means the right to choose. Unfortunately, just stating you want it is not enough. Another part of human nature is the desire to interfere, to lead. Whether it is with kind intentions or not, it is a trap. Freedom means the responsibility for yourself and the moral will to exercise it.

Many believe it is not possible, but I beg to differ. Where freedom and democracy reign, the average man is best off. I am not saying it is perfect. Obviously it is not pure democracy or pure freedom either, but the closer it gets the better off we are.

Many say the government must help the people with _________. What is the ________ ? Well, have you ever known a government to do anything very well, especially compared to a free market? There are a few things, yes, like an army, roads-stuff that cover the whole country. A certain of amount of law to keep your neighbor out of your hair and you out of your neighbor's hair. Other than that government just messes up.

You must be in charge of you as much as is possible. Only then can you achieve the best in yourself and we need you to be your best. Much is coming in the days ahead for this world and we will need every mind to contribute. If you are not free you cannot contribute the best that you are.

Welcome to the world, I wish you all the love, respect, and good fortune you can handle.
