As I said freedom is a state of being. Even when you are physically at liberty and apparently can do and live as you wish , that does not really liberate you if you are tied to your wants which you think you can not do without . Therefore, if you have to be free ,you should have a mindset that is not latched inextricably onto anything which you can not shed without the slightest hesitation.Then you will begin to understand what real fredom is.Such freedom can be experienced wherever you are , even if you are confined to a cage and not allowed to see daylight. If freedom to move around and do things that such freedom allows is so central to your life , then what you have done is that you have really become so dependent on your need to be in an open space that in fact you have foregone your freedom !
