Haha I actually wrote an article about true freedom a couple weeks ago. I think it was my very first articles.
But yes I completely agree with you when you say true happiness is living life on your own terms. But true freedom is actually just a myth. It doesn't exist. Then again, that's just my perception I guess.
But yes..... If you keep worrying about what other people think and you let them dictate your life, you will never be happy!
Interesting perception. I guess true freedom also depends on whether you believe it truly exists or not either.
P.S.
I appreciate your feedback. Feel free to elaborate further on your perception. I also followed you back.
