Freedom, Freedom, Freedom…

Everyone wants freedom. But from whom, what, where, and why????

First, let us define what freedom means…..

It can be buying costly things with your money…….

It can be doing things that you wish……..

It can be getting summer holidays after exams…….

It can be going on a world tour…..

It can be wearing clothes which we like…..

and so on so on……….

We can’t define freedom in one sentence. It is an emotion when we do something as we wish, not restricted by anyone.

It is to be understood that, we have different freedoms to satisfy our souls. From my point of view, I thought the following are the basic freedoms which we need to lead a happy life……..

  1. FINANCIAL FREEDOM: When someone is having enough money to meet their basic needs and some more money to save. They have the freedom either to invest their savings or buy new things. They don’t have any debts, or loans instead they start giving money to others.
  2. MATERIALISTIC FREEDOM: Freedom to have new clothes, shoes, watches, visit places, buy things. Freedom is felt by having those materials. This is a physical attachment to the world.
  3. RELATIONSHIP FREEDOM: Talking/loving someone we like without any restriction, maintaining good relationships, and ending toxic relations whomever they can be, is called having freedom in our relationships.
  4. GOALS FREEDOM: Everyone has their own goals. But due to our family, friends, financial status, and resources, it is difficult to achieve. The one who achieves their goals irrespective of their circumstances will attain real freedom.
  5. TIME FREEDOM: A day has 24 hours, but we schedule our day which needs more than 24 hours. In this busy life, we aren’t getting enough time to spend with elders, play with children, talk to our family, taking care of pets. We should even schedule a time to spend personally. We aren’t getting enough time freedom…..

All these freedoms can be approached by assigning tasks to someone, taking a long leave, or quitting the job.

We have another freedom called “INNER FREEDOM” which depends on our thinking process. Others’ thoughts and ideas should not kill our thinking process. Don’t just blindly follow others, think twice, you can have a different approach, you may win or you are 100% correct. When you start depending on others’ thoughts, you become a slave to execute their ideas. We have a different world in our minds, don’t pollute it by adding someone’s ideas. It is ok to listen to ideas but think twice about whether it helps us or not.

That was my version of freedom. Comment what type of freedom you want or any other types of freedom in your version. I hope you liked it and suggest some more topics which I can concentrate on.

Thanking You
