"自由 自由に歩き回り、上司を持たないこと"
— Walt Whitman
Simplified Meaning:
Being free means you have the ability to live your life without being controlled by others. Imagine you are on a walk in a big, open field. You can go anywhere you want, stop when you like, and make your own choices. No one is telling you where to go or what to do. Think about a time in history when people fought for independence, like when countries broke away from being ruled by empires. They wanted the power to make their own decisions. Similarly, in your own life, having freedom means you can decide what career to pursue, what hobbies to enjoy, and who to spend your time with, without someone else bossing you around. Living freely doesn’t mean you never listen to advice or rules, but rather that you have the final say in your choices. To apply this to your life, seek situations and relationships where you feel respected and in control, allowing you to grow and live happily.
