"Porque nada es más insoportable, una vez que se tiene, que la libertad."

James Baldwin

Simplified Meaning:

When people are given freedom, it can sometimes feel difficult to handle. Imagine a person who has just finished school and no longer has a set daily schedule. At first, the idea of doing whatever you want seems exciting. But soon, they might feel lost and unsure of what to do next since there are too many choices and no clear direction. Real-life examples are young adults moving out of their parents' house for the first time. They are excited but then realize they need to manage their time, budget, and new responsibilities alone. Freedom means making a lot of tough decisions and can be overwhelming. To handle freedom well, it's important to set some goals, create a routine, and stay focused on what truly matters to you. That way, freedom becomes an opportunity, not a burden.
