Freedom


What is freedom? Well, the dictionary definition of FREEDOM is:
the quality or state of being free: as; a: the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action; b: liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another; independence c: the quality or state of being exempt or released usually from something onerous (Merriam Webster's dictionary).

Freedom is something to be cherished and has no price tag, unlike so many other commodities in this world. Unless you have lost it, or never had it, as in the case of William Wallace, you may not be able to appreciate just how valuable it is. As the Reverend Mother said in the "Sound of Music", "a person has to live the life they were meant to live", and without freedom, that is not possible. Freedom to live life, now there's something I believe in with both my heart and soul!
