Freedom: What kind of phenomenon is that?

What is freedom? What kind of phenomenon it is? What can we achieve from freedom? a simple word raises several, maybe millions of questions. When a word like freedom comes over my mind, I only imagine what does freedom means. Some say it is a way to express yourself or a way of doing things by yourself. Honestly, the word freedom is like a giant jigsaw puzzle that is hard to solve. It is the hardest jigsaw puzzle of them all.

When I speak about freedom, people have different meanings that seem to be made up. Freedom of Press, freedom of speech, freedom of business, yada yada yada yada. I mean, Are We free to speak for ourselves? Or Does social media gives us the support to free describe ourselves? are our unwanted post are even deleted or not? Nothing can be said. These philosophies don't tell me what is freedom. There are so many possibilities but still, I'm confused about what it is.

In my mind, it feels like the word has no particular meaning of its own. It's like a suggestion box where people add their suggestions one by one. Then it's like a bowl of fortune cookies where people find messages written on the paper inside the cookie. What is written in the paper permits you to do what it says? Freedom is kinda' like a permit to something that is given by nobody but the word itself. When someone says that you are free, then you may think that you are free to do anything you want, whether good, bad, weird, unknown, or whatever the word you describe. It sometimes feels like it says that everything is a usual blah blah!

Nobody can find out what the word itself has to say. It's not the people who are told about freedom. It seems that the word freedom tells all of us that we are not free to do anything in this world. Are we? Good or bad is not in the dictionary of freedom. no such word is available to describe freedom. You may be given what it means or what it says, or maybe you will also be confused. Freedom is an extraordinary word that has no appropriate explanation.

Don't look at me like that? Just tell me what do you think in the comment box below.

Does Freedom Really Benefit Us?

Freedom means you are allowed to do anything without any restriction. But is it really true? Give me a break. I mean if it really means free than why it also has a bad effect? That is another theory that tangles me in a web of thoughts. In the last one, I said that the freedom is a word that literally gives us the right to anything, but does that mean the bad things or acts are also allowed? Let me guess, is it right to kick out someone from the job Or is it right to shut down the sim of a particular phone.? If we are free to do anything, then why are you taking somebody's free will or livelihood away from them? It just makes me feel that the word makes you the boss of everything. You have the power to banish anyone from an organization or bury communications with a snap of your finger because you are free to do so. Are you really out of your mind or the word itself have corrupted you? Speaking of word corrupt, this brings us to the government. Why is it not solving our problems? W...

Did The Cable Guy Just Foreshadow The Future 25 years Ago?

It has been almost 25 years since Jim Carrey's 'The Cable Guy' came to theatres. But It seems that The Cable Guy just foretold the future we are living in today. Yes, I watched the movie 25 years after its initial release in 1996(though I was born three years later). There is a scene where Chip Douglas (Jim Carrey) sits with his customer(or presumably friend) on a huge satellite dish. He says this quote which in my mind means the world of social media and technology we are living in today. The Future is now. Soon Every American Home will integrate their television, phone and computer. You'll be able to visit the Louvre on one channel, or watch female wrestling on the other. You can do your shopping at home, or play Mortal Kombat with a friend from Vietnam. There is no end to the possibilities. Jim Carrey in The Cable Guy, 1996 No end to the possibilities indeed. The Cable Guy just described the world of possibilities we are living in. People can shop from home ...
