One recent competition I came across, In Orion Mall, Bangalore.It was 15th Aug, they asked people to log on to their FB page & write a small brief on what any individual person thinks, What freedom is to him/her ??

I thought I should give a try & so, I logged on. Unfortunately their link to the write up page didnt function or so did I experienced.

I would like you write it here, & I also will love to see what you think on what FREEDOM is to you as the comments below....

" The instant I typed 'freedom' in the Google images search page, I could see pictures on random people, posing towards the sky with wide open hands, as if they are flying..,FREEDOM is just a simple word to spell & speak out. But to understand the essence, can be really challenging.

It is not about - living life as you want or taking things for granted or definitely neither flying high with your hands wide open in the air. Simply it is nothing of all these....

It is letting yourself live., with realization, dignity, passion, with culture & most of all with satisfaction.

Satisfaction of living that particular day & by the end of it feeling good, proud & not guilty for a thing is Freedom.

Freedom is relieving yourself out of your own cocoons.

Cocoons here never symbolize your culture or self control. Cocoons of the negativity of mind, demotivation in your innerself, underestimation of your capabilities, inferiority complex we build inside ourselves, theses are the cocoons we have to break to reach our real freedom.

Is there a single person or a single instant in your life, where you didnt feel inferior/incapable of yourself, where you didnt feel jealous of someone that they can & you couldnt.

I do. & if you say you have never, then that means either you are God or you are simply lying. These are the things we have to fight through to attain it. And when we attain that purity of heart, we have our Freedom !

:) as simple as that.
