00:29There once was discovered a land where freedom flowed like a clear, refreshing stream.

00:37Word of this wondrous stream spread to places where the currents of freedom were weak and dying.

00:44Many who heard of the river longed to come and live in this new land,

00:48to refresh themselves in this stream,

00:51for they knew that the power of freedom was great,

00:54that it would renew their hope and replenish their energy.

00:59So they came and tasted the waters of freedom.

01:05It was refreshing.

01:08And they said,

01:10Here is the greatness of this land.

01:13So long as this stream flows strong and clear,

01:17our people will be filled with life and hope.

01:21Our land will bring forth a vigorous and abundant life.

01:26But if these waters cease to flow or lose their clarity,

01:33our land will decay and die.

01:38The new land prospered.

01:40The people tilled the soil and built great cities.

01:46Remarkable inventions and new ideas made life rich and joyous.

01:50In this land of freedom.

01:53The people became content.

01:56How good to live in this most favored land.

02:00They grew proud.

02:02How well our hands have cultivated and built.

02:10Their pride grew and grew.

02:13They did not know that too much pride could blind them.

02:19They did not know that too much pride could make them arrogant, foolish.

02:25And so it happened that because they so coveted the river,

02:29they barred from it people who looked unfamiliar or talked differently.

02:35In the false belief that strangers were not deserving.

02:40Little remembering that not long ago, they too were strangers.

02:48When new ideas were proposed, the people ridiculed them,

02:53for they were not afraid to change the old ways.

03:00When some among them arose and selfishly took more than their share,

03:06the people did not stop them, but instead resolved to do the same.

03:16Instead of helping those who were ill and weak,

03:20they despised them and chastised them for their idleness.

03:28When a wise man stood up and said, look, the waters are beclouding,

03:33they could not see it, for their pride made them blind.

03:39And when he tried again to make them see, they shut him up.

03:45For his vision infuriated them.

03:49How could they act differently?

03:51They loved the stream as they remembered it, fresh and clear,

03:56and could not bear to look upon its decay.

04:00When the children, unblinded by old recollection, saw it too, they cried out.

04:08But their fathers called them ungrateful and punished them.

04:13And even as the river grew weak and muddy,

04:17glib leaders said it was strong and clear and must be sent to certain deserving lands.

04:24But the people believed them and allowed their precious little fluid

04:28to be spilled upon alien soil.

04:35The people, feeling their hopes dying and their energy waning,

04:41finally looked at the river.

04:45They saw it was wasted and stagnant.

04:50The spirit of despair was great in the land.

04:55The people became confused.

04:58They did not know what to do.

05:03In the darkness of that hour, they heard many voices.

05:09Some said,

05:10The river is a nuisance and only lowers efficiency.

05:14Too much freedom causes disorder.

05:18The people are not ready for the river of freedom.

05:21Perhaps later we will stop the river and start it again when it is safe.

05:31But other voices said,

05:34Let us work to make the waters of freedom flow fresh and strong again.

05:41Where it has been fouled by our foolishness, it can be made clear by our wisdom.

05:47Where it has grown stagnant from our neglect, it can be kept fresh by our vigilance.

05:55And the people listening said,

05:59The life or death of the river of freedom is in our hands.
