Freedom = Irresponsible?

Has freedom ever been being irresponsible? Abandonment? Rebellion? Freedom, is never any one of all of these…

Freedom IS responsibility – to myself and to the universe and all that nature created around me, for me and from me. Does my life have to depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed on me? Heck, NO! Freedom means I am unobstructed in living my life as I choose. Nothing stops me, ANYMORE! Anything less for me is a form of slavery. Reminds me of this quote by Benjamin Franklin “Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.” Dreams, aspirations, and ideals mean nothing, if one does not have the freedom to pursue them.

Freedom for me is when my spirit soars high despite all the limitations society and life imposes on me. Freedom for me is when I still wander being amidst a chaotic crowd in the city. Freedom for me is to lose myself in being responsible, in making that meal for my loved ones, in the running around to make a living like anyone else is, in fulfilling my duties and responsibilities. What differentiates me from the rest of the crowd is I choose how I feel… I control my mind… my mind listens to me… I am the undisputed boss here. Freedom of the mind – that is freedom!

I labored for this freedom. This change did not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but came through a continuous struggle. In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved. I am brave, and therefore I am free. Freedom lies in being bold. Anyone can be free the moment he/she wishes to. Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better. And hell yes, I have bettered myself with every liberal step I took forward…

I have embarked on many a journey alone; liberating! I devour on the experience of being alone. If you do not enjoy solitude you will not love freedom. Freedom is what one can experience when one has settled with that inner voice, the inner clutter. Then, even in being alone there is no insecurity or fear; there is freedom in every step alone; and that is where I belong; that is when you experience being one with the universe; that is when you experience the WOW!
