Freedom has different connotations to different people and different situations. Like song written and recorded by Paul McCartney in response to the September 11, 2001 attacks.

It's like, "Hey, I've got freedom, I'm an immigrant coming to America, give me your huddled masses." And that's what it means to me, is, "Don't mess with my rights, buddy. Because I'm now free.""[4]

 

When India achieved her freedom, at the dawn of 15th August 1947 – A humble beggar walked into the enclosure reserved for foreign diplomats at one ceremony.A police-man asked him for his invitation?

“Invitation?” he answered. “Why do I need an invitation? I have my independence. That’s enough.”

What are your instances for freedom?

To be honest to myself and to others; to conquer my fears, that's freedom for me.

“Freedom is for honest people. No man who is not himself honest can be free – he is his own trap.”

-  L. Ron Hubbard

“Ultimately we know deeply that the other side of every fear is freedom.”

- Marilyn Ferguson


It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours.

- Buddha

We wanted freedom as we felt that we were being ruled by Foreigners and they are exploiting us for their benefit.

As we got freedom and we govern our countrywith full confidence that we are not exploited.

It is like moving around in our own house rather than somebody's house.

Varsha, freedom is only an illusion, how? read this... As a kid you are governed by parents, teachers even your friends, as you grow you are governed by parents now there are professors and lecturers who govern you literally, as you grow further you are governed by your bosses whether you are right or wrong, further as you start getting the sigh of relief (rather start breathing the freedom of earning your own money and enjoying suddenly you are governed by your spouse and slowly by kids, as you grow further you are governed by doctors and all the ailments governed by medicines, and further all your chances are survival are governed by the almighty.... so in average life of 55 years where do you get time to feel the freedom????    P.S. : read this with a smile on your face else I'll be governed by many more from toostep.

excercising rights you would end up only trying to differentiate what is right and what is wrong being judgemental.kub jeeoagee

you are free when you do not care about anything moral policing.right and wrong.implement freedom.

living in solace cannot betermed freedom

you are never thinking the way you want to,there are thousands of advertisement which are making you think differently.

what is popular and what is not aree bhai jeeoaaa...live life do not waste it being judgemental.tryingto know what is right and what is wrong.if you keep trying to find everything in moralistic attitude and end up in what is right what is wrong..........etc etc when would you live.

freedom is not in a way someone think about it and writes a book what do you feel is freedom.

freedom is not achieving something what about the next moment you take up another challange.

so neti neti neti neti......fear freedom..natoinalist freeedom..conquerying some thingis freedom neti no no o..  freedom is absence of something cannot be a defination in negative way

 

freedom is the moment you feel free.

According to me, freedom means without any boundaries or pressure, nobody is there to point of your deeds. You enjoy however you want. But also we should not forget, when it comes to country, we should not forget there are some rules and regulations in the absence of which peace cannot be there. That is known as "LAW"

"NATIONALISM" I think personl consideration of freedom is somewhat triving its real essence, it was a collective effort and acheivement of our freedom fighter... since people have taken freedom in personal forms the true essence of freedom "NATIONALISM" looses its worth.... i feel belongingness of one towards his nation is true essence...
