Freedom (MD's opinion)

~FREEDOM.

Freedom is a gift from God that we can do whatever we want without being manipulated by others. It's in you if you'll use this in a good or bad way. Because it's a gift, we shouldn't abuse this gift that God has given to us. This gift also is living our lives and express our feelings and not to impress other people. We shouldn't live what others want but live the way we want to. Who's life is this? It's ours. So what, if we decide this and that. Does that affect them? It's our life, not theirs.We do things we like and not to do the things we dislike. Simple as that. We shouldn't mind what others will say about the things we do. We are born to be free and not to become a slave of someone out there. For example, you want to help your classmate who is bullied by your other classmate. Then your friends are threatening you that if you help your bullied classmate they will do the same thing to you. Don't be afraid. Help the person who is in need and never mind those people who are not true to you. If they call you a 'leech' or 'sip-sip' in Filipino never mind them. As long as you know that your decision is right then DO IT.



FREEDOM. If you don't have this, then you are like living your life in a ribcage. You're a slave that keeps obeying masters. Why did God gave you life? Simple, for you to experience how to live and He wants you to enjoy every bit of it. How will you ENJOY every bit of it if there are people who are manipulating you and you too is like a dog who is obeying the master. We are not dogs.We are human.

"I am the captain of my fate, I am the master of my soul."  That's from the poem of William Ernest Henley from the poem "Invictus". From that line, you can see that you own your life that was just borrowed from God. You are the captain of your beliefs. You believe what you want to believe. Not what others want you to believe. You are the master of your soul. You do whatever you want to do to it.We are not living a life inside a cage but we live outside of it. So, we that means we are free. But, we should not abuse it or this 'freedom' will be lost. Use it in a right and good way. Not the other way around. Remember this,  "We live to EXPRESS and not to IMPRESS." Read between the lines.
