I always thought that I am free.
Free to move...
Free to eat...
Free to talk...
Free to sleep...
Free to love...
And free to do whatever I want to do.
It took me some time to realize that those freedom that I mentioned were the limitations that I have. Limitation is like a prison that binds me to stay where I am.
Basically, humans have physiological limitations. Our body tells us what we have to do and we act according to our body's instinct. Such as we eat because we are hungry. We sleep because we are sleepy.
Humans are also Social Animals. We cannot live in this world alone. We always need someone to relate to and need someone to affirm us. And this need tells us that our freedom to love or make friends or look for relationships is caused by this psycho-social need.
So, are we really free? I don't know...
All I know is, as long as we know how to be detached with these needs then we are free...
