There are many definitions of freedom. One of it is the quality or state of being free and the absence of necessity, coerce and constraint in choice or action. This is defined by the online dictionary Merriam Webster.  

Yes, you are free to think and taking actions but to what extent? It is true that we are all born in this world with that type of freedom, however the consequences of that freedom that we have to take into account for.

But to me, the definition of freedom is relatively simple. Freedom here means we are free to think. Yes, definitely. This is because our inner thoughts are only private to ourselves. But are we free to voice it? Are we free to take any actions that we want? This is the time when we have to make choices. We do not have the freedom of making choices as many people will think so. This is because the choices that we will make might have a long everlasting consequences and may affect many individuals in the future.

Many people do not realize this. That is why they come up with the ideology "The Freedom of Speech" or "The Freedom of Expression". The fact is, we do not have that type of freedom. The moment of our birth in this world, we are abide by laws. Every single actions that we take, every errors that we make are abide by the human law.

This is because we are not born alone in this world. We are sharing this earth with another human beings, animals, trees and creatures. If we are born alone, then we might have that type of freedom. However, since that we are not alone in this world, there is no such thing as freedom. The freedom here is only the freedom to think. The choices that we have to make, the words that we utter, the words that we write, every single action that we intend to take do not come with the word "freedom" in it. 

"For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others" ~Nelson Mandela~
