Really well stated @sstefan! I just found your post through @clayboyn's curation.

Being part of existence means to be bound by some rules and conditions. If 'freedom' is to be able to do what we want; well, then we are imprisoned by almost everything - longevity, physics, genes, society, government... Truly if we want to push the idea of freedom to its absolute, then the only freedom we have is to not exist. This is of course a dark tunnel, and i'm only entertaining a thought...

On the other hand, the good news, is that we will always keep pushing our limits in all directions and in every aspect of our being for as long as humanity lives. On the whole, we see freedom is expanding, and people today have more rights than ever before, and that is something worthy of appreciation and protection.
