You will rarely be able to do whatever you want in life; any decision requires a lot of planning and usually a lot of bureaucracy. You cannot decide to go to France this afternoon, you have to go to work, you have to think of your employer, your wife or husband, your kids, your passport, your bank balance, the list goes on.
The Free World has wrongly been called free; we are not free; it is in the Social Contract of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Your freedom ends where your neighbor's freedom begins, and since we are surrounded by neighbors everywhere we go at any time, the only freedom you will ever enjoy can only be in your own mind. The freedom that we have all been told we had is a virtual concept that in practice does not materialize.
Freedom is but an illusion, there is no free world to speak of in the here and now on this planet, and as hard as I could try to figure out a way to bring this world any sort of freedom, I cannot see it happening any time soon.
Writing this entry is my last taste of freedom against such social repression I live under. There is no such thing as freedom.
