Freedom means different things to different people. For some it may be the ability to freely express themselves, verbally, physically, intellectually or artistically. For others, it may mean financial independence, freedom from authoritarian people or governments, archaic rules, racism, sexism or a bad job. For some it may even be freedom from their own negative thoughts and patterns. Essentially all freedom is about a deep human need for autonomy, and a means to end one or the other kind of suffering. What does freedom mean to you? When was the last time you actually gave it a deep thought?
