We need freedom for writing speech and so on. We also need freedom at our home and workplace. However too much of freedom may not be good for you. There should be some limitation in freedom for children, employees and so on. Are you careful not to go beyond the limits while enjoying your freedom? You are free to respond now

Yes, jai dear, too much of anything is not good. It is dangerous and freedom is not an exception to it.We need freedom but there should be some limitations. We should draw some boundaries and try our best not to go beyond that boundaries. I am sure freedom within limits is wonderful.

Of course Vijaaynth! Our house is a very democratic one where evryone would be given total freedom.But we are all bound by some invisible thread of discipline and we won't even dream of stepping out of this. As adults we are all accountable to ourselves and also one another.

Nice to note the freedom in your home kala. In my home every one enjoys a bit more freedom than necessary.So far no unwanted incident happened because of this extra freedom we all enjoy. But I sometimes think we must have less freedom than we enjoy now. But it's too late now.

There is a very thin dividing line between discipline and regimentation. Similarly there is a very thin dividing line between love and indulgence. When the major contributors of upbringing [be it the father or mother] does not know this, balance gets disturbed. THis is where you feel this slight regret.Is it not so? And I do agree that things cannot be recitfied if it gets too late.Still it would be better than being totally awry becasue there has been no unwanted incident in yoru house. It shows that there has been some sort of invisible control or you can term it God's grace. I still feel that whatever we may do, it requires a bit of extra grace from GOd for thing s shaping up well and normal because outside influences on children in school and college are beyond our control.

Yes, kala whatever do, in the end God decides the results. I have experienced it several times in my life. I used to plan too well in business and I was so confident it could never fail. I used to analyze in all angles and God proved that there could be always another angle and taught me big lessons. I am happy that so far we are enjoying more freedom at our home and so far no body misused it too much to be worried.

I think i am given full freedom to express my views in this aspect. Well freedom is indeed necessary for certain things especially for a freelance journalists, and photographers to expose certain malpractices that are happening in the society which will become a curtain raiser. children should also be given freedom to a certain level and so also we should have some freedom in some categories otherwise our life will become hell and imprisoned of sort

You are fully right vathsala. The freedom of writing is a must. I agree with you fully on this. Freedom to speak and freedom to write are basic needs of any democratic country. How about you vathsala? I am sure you are enjoying full freedom at your home. I also know that you will never misuse your freedom.

Hi anna, yes we need freedom to write speeches, freedom at home and workplace too, otherwise we can't write all the points whatever we want to explore, we can't stay at home peacefully we can't work properly in the workplace however, we should not take it an advantage of freedom given to us, there should be limitation to everything, if you go beyond that, then you have to face the problems. We ourselves should not make situations as puzzles. We have to be in our boundaries, that will be sweet and smart. And we have give freedom to our children and employees, but not that freedom to make children life's get spoil. Employees should not take advantage of that freedom, freedom to work but not freedom to finger in the official matters. Have a nice day.

how about you Jotomy? Do you enjoy full freedom at your home and at your workplace? I ma sure you won't misuse the freedom given to you. I know it's not easy to resist the temptation to cross the boundaries when we enjoy full freedom. We must have that self-control to do it.

yes anna, we have full freedom in the house, since ours is a joint family, we all maintain that limitations and discipline. It shows respect to our elders too and it is training for our children also. In the work place i given much freedom to my subordinates to come out with their plans and strategy. Since i was the head, i used to give training to my new comers, i made them to love the work and learn the work and made them to dedicate to the work also i explained to them how to utilize the time and training and how to come up in the same line. I am also subordinate to my superiors but never i spoke to them any time, yes sir, no sir, or just sir, these are the words i used. my time and my work and my limitation i never crossed. I feel if a woman is good the family will be good the surroundings will be good. If i am good to others they are good to me too..

For me , freedom is very valuable and important. I know this very well. My home was less than 500 year rule, which has affected the future of this country and the futering development.That because Bulgaria is not good place to live. Freedom is a very important for each person. ? man who has no freedom , a man who has no will . Everyone must fight for their freedom.If a man who not have a freedome , have no sense for live. That is my opinion for this discusion for the freedome.

hi hristo95, freedom is when you do things you just wanna do, may it be good or bad, this i call abused freedom. some conflicts among other people is caused by what we call and value so much as freedom. i believe that freedom and discipline should be bound together to keep a person responsible for anything he does concerning freedom.

Yup, freedom is every1z right, of course as you mentioned there is a limit within which freedom is defined as freedom, if crossed its no more freedom, but can lead to sin, wants, desires, greediness, selfishness, etc..,

anything when goes beyond limit is not good...and so is freedom....you should give freedom to children, but let them know the importance and limits of it...tell them that if they go beyond limits they can have to face sufferings in their life....also that they may lose it if the misuse it...keep them in your confidence, that your parents will do the right thing for you

I guess you're right, freedom have a broad and complex in meaning. To what extent we are free? All of us love freedom. No one enjoys being in captivity. In fact, many wars have been waged in the name of freedom. Those who wanted to harvest the blessings of freedom should exert effort of supporting it. To me, personal freedom carry out the following: to enjoy my life at my own movement, to live where I want to and to work at a job I like. But freedom is not an action go beyond the limits; it is the freedom to do what is good, to do what should we ought to do.

of course independence beyond a limit must not be allowed..we may just fly away leaving everything behind.. we must take more time and enjoy every bit of freedom we are having..over independence may make a person sometimes irresponsible....even about himself.. thanks for the topic.. have a great day/night..........

Hi, hushi Indian women have even less freedom than you perhaps. But things are changing a lot these days. Indian women have started to enjoy freedom. In future they will enjoy more freedom than needed. In that case men may feel that they have less freedom than women.

Freedom is the most important thing for anybody. I remember as a teenager I used to get frustrated when my parents used to prevent me from doing anything which I thought was correct. But freedom should always be governed by discipline. Freedom has got different meaning in different fields. If the people of a country are not free to express themselves freely against any rule imposed by the government the country cant prosper. But if the employees are given lot of freedom to express themselves that might ruin the growth of a organization. So, friends freedom is very important provided it is closely monitored with discipline. Thanks a lot guyz. Keep posting

Their is always an exemption to the rules. For children we must set a certain rules to follow this is a training for then at young age so that when they grow they become a responsible person.As for employee they are given a company policy which is not and the things they should do. but sometime we know that they are some who opposed but limit is always a limit.

I guess it starts in childhood. It may be a great life for a kid to have freedom to do everything that he or she would want to do but we all know that there will be a price to be paid later in life for all that unusual freedom. Children need and appreciate boundaries and I guess it doesn’t change in adulthood. Society would not function if every single person lacked discipline which enhances the self esteem and grants us the satisfaction of achieving goals.I think a good life is all about balance, between total freedom and restraint.

Hi Friend, Yes we all know that the Late Martin King Jr. and the Late Malcom X both fought for FREEDOM for Blacks in America and we can all say that the dream of Martin Luther came to materialize when Barrack Obama Sr. came to be the 44th president of the United States sitting in as the first black president of the world's greatest nation. but in this situation we should ask ourselves to what degree are we fighting for our freedoms? oppression as an act of denying one his freedoms a good example is Zimbabweans. they have faced serious atrocities in the hands of their leader. the U.N clearly spells out basic human freedoms alongside workers& children's rights. as long as we are following them and that the followers are not breaking them like having the wrong things st the wrong time or wanting the unneeded then that should be denied as it does not lie under the categories of rights..! Also we should follow to rules set aside or laws that govern a place or country and by the way my friend, no place has the most perfect freedoms we all feel oppressed in one way or another but we get use to it..! Nice Time.

For my own opinion, FREEDOM is very important in our daily lives. People might not think of this issues at all, but the fact is, freedom important to us. Freedom can give us the right vote, to say out what we thoughts. People in places that without freedom will be very unhappy because they're controlled by other people to doing something and they unable to speak out their own thoughts. Why they want to speak out? It is because they want their lives to be improved and country become better for their own and next generation.
