We are free to be ourselves
We are the sovereign authorities in our own lives. We are free to be ourselves and live in personal ways, pursuing our personality and personal wishes in life in a constitutional and lawful way. We determine what defines us and what we pursue.
We decide our religion or philosophical outlook, what we study and work with, what knowledge to integrate and what to disregard. We define our own morals, ethics, ideals, values, and principles. We shape our personality, cultivate our style, pursue our interests, and choose our way of life. We decide how to walk, talk, dress, and conduct ourselves. We decorate our own homes and hang our own paintings. We vote as we see fit, debate openly, and challenge decision-makers through discourse. If we strongly disagree with something or wish to express ourselves, we take to the streets and squares to demonstrate or protest. We may even gather outside offices and institutions to make our rhetorical stand. We write in the press and in social medias. Here, in this nation, we express ourselves.
If we witness injustice, crime, or an abuse of power, we report it, we demonstrate, we protest, and we raise public debate. If we suspect our rights to have been violated, we investigate, research, study and seek assistance to have them restored. Right should be right in Sweden.
So long as we do not gravely disturb public order, fall into severe self-destruction, or violate the laws of our nation, we remain free to be ourselves and pursue our interests.
We express ourselves in alignment with the definitions of truth. To hold facts and established sciences and theories in the highest regard, while expressing what´s not proven or what´s personal as theories, opinions, beliefs etc. With respect for the theories, opinions and beliefs of others. We must know truth and probabilities, what the probability of a theory is. We must know what we know and what we don’t and what is officialy seen as truth.
There is also a difference between truth and what´s considered proven or decided with qualification. Mistakes are made, people who are innocent go to prison. It must be allowed to debate decisions and to counter-investigate decisions in a lawful way.
With theese constitutions you can be proud to participate in your nation and pay your taxes. But they must be followed also.
Know your rights—Know them well, and constructively claim them in a careful way if there´s an issue.
We are responsible of what we are responsible to be capable of.
The law is secondary to the constitution, the constitution is the ideal, the law is to achieve and restore it. The law should then be made secondly. First the constitution, then the law about the constitutional situations and events. And the law should be made in the spirit and direction of the constitution so that it constructively achieves both victories and improvements. Sometimes the victories are most important. That the reasons for bad events, the real reasons, are defeated. And that integrities are restored, compensations, apologies etc.

Frame of democracy – legal theory
According to theese constitutions our democratic art of living must be within a frame of rights.
- The primary frame is our normal everyday freedoms to live and act proactive
- The secondary frame is what´s obligated in roles, socially adequate or admitted/offered/communicated as allowed.
- The third frame is what´s excepted as mitigating and exculpatory circumstances. (This is never done intentionally, it´s not a freedom one can practise awarely)
- The fourth frame is self defence or reasonably mistaken self defence, security, emergency rights etc. To defend yourself from percieved risk or danger. Necesseary self defence. By retorics, acts, escape, protection, raising attention, protests, physical enforcement, aquirations, violence, citizens arrests etct. we can defend ourselves. If there´s no other obvious and better way to achieve the same result. The self defence must be proportional.
- The fifth frame is the right to excessive behaviour during self defence. If the self defence his hard to master and becomes unproportional it can sometimes be excused as being a victim of having to defend yourself.
If you walk around in society and observe the most free democratic behaviours, the most extreme books, theories, cults, religions, music, art, politics, demonstrations, protests, debates, philosophies etc. that are available in the stores and on the internet. If you look at the most extreme celebrities and professionials and what they do. The first frame must be seen as fairly wide. If you read the most advanced conceptual litterature and watch the most innovative marketing. You must also see that we can communicate in deep, advanced and conceptual ways. Retorics and conceptual communication with media and text can be an art.
Whatever you do as a government servant should be something that you carefully evaluate putting your signature on. You should be able to lay it next to the constitutions and say that it constitutes them. It should be sufficient and accurate.
I want to make clear that I have little political ambition. I am not an activist. Just a citizen with an opinion who is paying taxes and feels good about by that buying basic safeties, functions and the constitution for our nation. My ambition is simpler. I aspire to be an entrepreneur, professional and leader that work with partners and build my own businesses and gives that and who is known for that. And I want to live my own personal life about that and based on that. I just want to pay my taxes, expect everything to function and be constitutional and do nothing else myself unless it´s absolutely necesseary. 50% or what it is, of my professional lifetime is quite enough. I follow the law and pay my taxes. But that´s about it. On the governments and courts webpages we are promised 3 constitutions. Theese are primary to the law and must be followed and investigated before the law. I expect this to work then. That is my opinion as a tax-paying citizen. Further than this I have no interest in participating in any way either politically or as involved in any government. I want to live in the private sector and with a more international lifestyle.
Proactive ideas
I believe we need more proactivity and constitutionalism in this nation. There should be a governmental initiative for advising, life coaching and personal development—a coworking environment where individuals could refine themselves, cultivate personal leadership, and build their lives in collaboration with a life coach. Where they could also go with any problem or request for assistance on how to solve a situation. To get advice on proper procedure. A place to study, start businesses, create work examples, attend courses and classes—all under one roof. And there should be a right to spend a certain number of compensated months there, based on months worked or sponsored by the government as part of a program elsewhere. People should not have to wait until their lives are misery to go to the government. A function like this in society could create enormously positive effects, improve destinies and also prevent huge costs. It also aligns with the human rights thinking that society is a platform for every citizen to achieve themselves trough. The goals of this institution should be health, personality, personal success, competence, constitutional, legal, ethical and important-for-life knowledge, professional development, careers and business careers. Imagine the results, experiences and destinies that would stem from this.
Proactivity is to take initiative and responsibility to achieve good results trough direct consequences or long term effects. It is also to be risk analytical and prevent risks from happening. It then relies on knowledge, insight, experience and understanding of experiences and consequences of various sort.
Constitutionalism should of course be a mandatory subject in schools, with a greater emphasis placed on it. People should know all of our constitutions, and through that knowledge, the course of events and destinies in this country would improve. People would get along better despite differences and treat eachother better.
I think when you approach society problems, you should do it with a full hand. A hand, or a closed fist if you prefer has five fingers:
- Understanding
- Proactivity
- Improvement(enable, encourage, recognize and defend improvements)
- Constructivity
- Intolerance
Sometimes you need to do more than just pointing a finger. You need to use the whole hand.
To solve many problems and get people to improve, they need to be shown better ways and mentalities, and greater values achieved trough this and a higher dignity founded in this.
I am going to study some courses in private law, business law, writing, rhetoric, languages, media production, photography, religion, and much more. I will make some relevant posts in that direction. Given my previous studies and career, this should be relatively easy, and I plan to study most of it privately and simply take the exams. I will write more about it later.
Take care, be constitutional and have a good day!
