Freedom is that thing
you were born with, is your right.
It lives in your soul.
Deep inside yourself, do you believe this? Or has society convinced you of something different?

More and more I discover that the concept of freedom is complicated. Is it freedom if it negates other’s rights, for example. It’s a crazy time for ‘freedom’

I agree, it is made complicated in society. I’m not sure, though, that making up more and more rules to manage the complexity is going to get us out of this. This calls for a completely “outside the box” way of thinking and doing. But of course, those who run society (and increasingly make more rules to manage us) want to keep us in their box. It’s going to take a lot of love, forgiveness, understanding, compassion, and cooperation between us to move us past this. How often do we see this even talked about within the context of the collective and society?

Right!? I think the emphasis is on greed most of the time which negates everything else.

Agreed. Our values are very skewed.
