Hey Adi,
You can make choices for yourself. Make the wrong one, you may suffer financially, or with a loss of freedom. Being free, I can move if I want, sell my home, buy a car, eat what I like. With all this freedom, you have to be selective.
If you are free - you must support yourself, you have burdens with being free - but you can derive happiness from your choices. If you are not free to choose, then you are not free.
Freedom does not include any rights to hurt someone else. You may not infringe on the rights of others. So, you are not free to do anything you want, just the things that are legal.
Freedom is an ideal, like Truth - we want freedom, we want truth. So, all you can do is try to achieve freedom. You will always have rules, laws, regulations, etc.
Maybe death, after a righteous life, is true freedom.

Freedom is politically defined as the right of human beings to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This is a wonderful thing to aspire to but unfortunately there are complications IE. human beings.
I have to confess. I am a human being
There will probably be no greater day in the earths (universes)history than the day all people are of one mind and can accept that we all have the right to exist without interferrence and/or threats from fellow travelers in our short time on the planet

Freedom means to have the ability to make choices. Freedom is the word that has two sides. One good is that we can do good things without resistance and restrictions. Second evil side is that we can make evil things because of lack of resistance and restrictions. Freedom can give power if someone is wise enough to use it properly, but can become the evil trap if free person use his freedom to destroy good inside him. God gives us a lot of freedom. Sometimes we want to rebel to some rules or some law because we believe that they are restricting too much our freedom... Sometimes its not wright because too much of freedom can be worse than not enough. To value freedom is needed to value and respect powers that control the level of freedom like rules and laws.

Freedom as agonizing with its forms and legislation upon any one individual to freely walk upon this earth and speak to address what so ever may broaden any truth in realm about prosperity for the farmer and the American people are joined inhands to cherish our earth for the goodness of Man and be it known that all persons her in after shall be free from impoverished lives and low wealth and jobs shall be plentiful so that America shall breathe on her own and my band of brothers at hand who fought to protect these rights shall not go unseen and with all said our liberty stands tall for all foreigners and native born Americans in which freedom cannot be bought nor sold, it is free.
