What Does Freedom Mean?
A large bird trapped in a small cage longs to fly far away. In its confined reality, it suppresses itself, silently enduring the moment. But in that brief instant, the cage disappears, sinking into a vast, blue expanse of water. In this limitless world, the bird sees small fish and large fish swimming freely, reminding it of the true essence of freedom. We all have our own spaces where we must live freely. Fish belong in the water, birds live among the trees, animals roam the forests, and humans thrive in their unique environments, dreaming of freedom in their own ways. While countless years may pass and surroundings change, the fundamental nature of existence—its inherent freedom—remains constant. This reflection encourages us to reconsider the meaning of freedom and existence, something we may have overlooked. Escaping the confines of our realities to adopt a fresh perspective allows us to truly embrace life. That is the beginning of the freedom we all aspire to achieve.
