What is freedom to you?

According to google freedom means; the power or right to act, speak or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint.

We live in a world of intolerance, where people want to push their ideas into people´s heads. When freedom should be about respect and tolerance, the world could be better if we practice the basics of respect for each other´s beliefs. People kill with excuses in name of ideas and beliefs when we all live in a world of difference. Not everyone like to live in the city, not everyone likes the same food, not everyone wears the same clothes, we are different in all the aspects. So if you try to be a good person, but you harass someone in the name of your beliefs, well, you are not about freedom at all. So what´s freedom for you?

We feel free when we feel respected in the basics. You can´t talk about freedom when you take that same space from someone else, you can´t act or speak in the name of freedom when your actions are against the true meaning of being free.

the world has billions of different people and cultures and religions and so on. Being free is to live, without creating cages for you or others.

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first.”

― Jim MORRISON

"I do not expect you to respect me, but do not invade my space, when you clearly were not invited in "
