Freedom

What is freedom? Is it an absolute right? We are born to become free. Freedom is defined from different aspect ,and according to different cultures, freedom varies from culture to another. Some define freedom as a natural right, the human being is born with. Everyone wants to be free and independent from others .Freedom is the right to do what one wants, live where he wants, eat what he wants, learns what he wants, and chooses the religion in which he believes, without ignoring or harming other rights.

How can we live free? From my point of view, we can live free by respecting other’s rights to live free too. We cannot ignore the rights of people with whom we live in the society. We cannot simply do what we want and ignore others. We must take other people rights into consideration.

The idea behind freedom is to be respectful and useful to our society. Freedom is important to everyone. If someone is deprived from this innate right, he will definitely feel as if he is not a respectful human being. When freedom is guaranteed, I can think freely, go where i want, say my opinion without fear from people who would not like my opinion. Freedom of opinion is among the most important branches of freedom .In some societies where freedom of opinion is not guaranteed by the authority, the creativity of mind is killed.  Society is the largest and biggest loser from this lack of creativity. Someone once said, Freedom of opinion will never result in animosity among people if they respect each other. As I mentioned earlier, freedom is not an absolute right, and there are too many constraints on it. Firstly, the society rights including national security which is very important. Security is as important as freedom. Our practising of freedom should never lead to threatening our national security. Secondly, freedom of belief, to believe in what you want and chooses your righteous religion. We also should have the right to establish our own places ,where we perform our religious actions.

Historically, there has been an evident proof that freedom is innate to human and that he will fights as long as he lives to restore his innate right to be a free man .The western civilization guaranteed freedom for its own people, and occupied poor nations and deprived their people from their rights, including freedom. So ,these poor nations fought without rest to restore freedom and autonomy from occupation. Abduction of rights , is not a respectful human action. Since God gave us freedom for free, we must do our best to maintain and keep this right.

                In summary, freedom is an innate right, humans are born with. Nothing should threaten our freedom, deprive us from our right. Also our right of freedom must never harm any other human being , directly or indirectly. We must respect freedom of everyone in the society. This way we can enjoy our freedom through our life.
