      How do you define freedom? How can you be free if you can't consciously determine everything that you have the potential to do?

      I once read that the very search for freedom is futile, because doing so strengthens the prospect of having so-called barriers to that freedom. The more we fight for it, the more we are trapped. Real freedom is accepting what is happening in our lives right now.

      Good Topic!

      Freedom:

      the quality or state of being free: as a : the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action

      According to Merriam Webster's dictionar of Law

      This definition is lacking, however in that it would mean that complete freedom would require omnipotence. But what if it does?

      True freedom is only found in death. Freedom from the ilusions of life,
      To focus on one state of mind always.

      I agree. Its contentment in any situation. The essence of the words of Paul in the gospel.

      But in death, chances are we just stop existing, in that respect, freedom isn't a good thing.

      then its this.

      Understand that any commitment you have is not withholding you form anything.You could leave that responsibity anytime.Nothing really holds you down when you are free.
