Topic of Breakdown Liberty
Liberty. ... What is one to think upon hearing the word ‘liberty? ... I believe the word ‘liberty’ has lost much of its essential spirit. Many countries in the past, and I suppose do currently achieve, the status considered as ‘liberty;’ the freedom from rule of another country or government. We think of such occurrences as an act, many do not consider the entity of liberty. Do people disregard simple understanding of the idea or is it a myth, is there even such a thing as ‘liberty?’ Follow me as I travel through the valley of liberty, and attempt to fully comprehend the idea myself. ... The dictionary defines liberty as “the condition of being free from restriction or control. ... Perhaps the sentence was worded wrong, ‘the condition of restriction from freedom, not control” Let’s apply liberty to the greater picture. We have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. ... If I have the right to your so-called liberty, why do I need a government to give me the right to have it?
