There is No Such Thing as Freedom To an extent freedom of choice and like we are doing now sharing differing opinions. Everyone's definition of freedom varies because our lives are not the same. If you notice people who are in prison (confined) versus people who are outside of prison which would be an example of freedom from confinement. We can be free from others if required, but we can never be free from ourselves without accepting ourselves. We have freedom to a certain extent unless it is abused or restricts someone else. Depending on the situation there would likely be consequences of one's actions in a physical and metaphysical sense.
