Hi fellow Hive!
I think that every human being, at some point in life, will doubt the existence of freedom. However, no one can doubt that human nature is essentially formed by freedom.
I was listening to the news of the day and I couldn't help being upset when an important political figure in my country shouted: "We are a free, sovereign and independent nation.
I'm not sure where he points when he said that but what he alludes to in front of his eyes is.
For me, freedom is the raw material for human happiness. Those who are free are more likely to be happy than those who are not. There can be no happiness in slavery, in suffering, in pain.

Any form of radicalism, be it religious, scientific or political, does not contribute to human freedom. In other words, any action that seeks to diminish human freedom must be immediately repudiated.
Of course, freedom is not debauchery. Freedom implies responsibility. Responsibility with one's life, with the life of the other and, consequently, with the life of future generations. You don't play with freedom, because whoever loses it tends to appreciate it.
Freedom is the greatest good of human existence. Those who are educated in freedom are more likely to be defenders of freedom than those who were not. Only those who are free know how to value freedom. In general, those who do not love freedom do injustice.
Therefore, creating a more just and equal world for everyone necessarily implies understanding the concept of freedom. Freedom of expression, freedom of worship, in short, freedom for human beings to be what they want to be.
Freedom unites people, builds new dreams, points out new paths. Only free human beings live in peace and can wish peace to others!
Every oppressor cannot bear to hear the word freedom. Usually, they think that oppression is the fault of the other. The oppressor never puts himself in the other's place. Oppression is born when freedom is withdrawn.
The most important lesson from this little narrative is that freedom must be earned and not inherited. Conquest means "fight", while inheritance means "passivity". We must always fight for our rights.
Away or within the bonds of power, those who love freedom fight for freedom. In all its forms, freedom must be exalted, as the poet sang: "Freedom, freedom opens the door for us."
Finally, I want to leave you with a thought I found on the blog portal:
The key to freedom is not in the weapons. It's in education, culture, research.
