for the fourth time

[Guest guest]

A news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady

because she had

just gotten married -- for the fourth time.

The interviewer asked her questions about her life,

about what it

felt

like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her

new husband's

occupation.

'He's a funeral director,' she answered.

'Interesting,' the newsman thought. He then asked her

if she wouldn't

mind telling him a little about her first three

husbands and what

they

did for a living.

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect

on all those

years. After a short time, a smile came to her face

and she answered

proudly, explaining that she'd first married a banker

when sh e was

in

her early 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her

40's, later on a

preacher when in her 60's, and now in her 80's, a

funeral director.

The in terviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and

asked why she

had married four men with such diverse careers.

She smiled and explained, 'I married one for the

money, two for the

show, three to get ready, and four to go.'

Spiritual freedom is my birthright.

I am a free thinker. I am able to rise above mental

prejudices and stereotypes of others.

I am a free thinker. Nobody and nothing can manipulate

me or deceive me.

I am a free thinker. I freely choose truth and love.

Today, I embrace a greater degree of spiritual

freedom.
