FREEDOM

The definition of freedom is the state of being free or at liberty rather than in confinement or under physical restraint, exemption from external control, interference, regulation, etc., the power to determine action without restraint and the political or national independence. When someone thinks of the word freedom, they think of freedom in America, freedom in politics, speech, religion, etc. I simply typed the word freedom on google and not one weblink described a young adults freedom. Yes, I have all those freedoms in America, but I have something more. After going from highschool to college, I've realized not that they're different, but how different they really are. Besides the classes and teachers and after school activities, there's freedom. I'm sort of talking about independence in a way that independence is when we're on our own, no teacher to call our parents, no attendance and constantly watching over us, college is one step closer to the real world. Freedom is now given to us, letting us choose our own classes and teachers, coming and going as we please and in this class alone, being able to express our opinions and write freely, being able to have our own voice in our papers. Freedom in college sometimes also means freedom in the house, whether one lives in a dorm or with their parents, studying is on their own time, going out is more open and just as tasha said, more responsibilities. Now our lives begin and now we finally get to find out who we are and what we want to do in the future, in the real world, step by step our character is coming into play. Freedom has many paths, choose the best.
