The Freedom Of The Human Being

THE FREEDOM OF THE HUMAN BEING

Freedom is the ability to choose without any coercion. Freedom has been present for centuries in humanity and is the one that differentiates us from other living beings. But are we really free?

In my opinion the freedom of the human being is to some extent influenced since the human being himself is a child until he is an old man. It is influenced because since childhood they teach us values that on many occasions force us to accept and take them as their own. Therefore it is not absurd to think that the freedom of the human being does not exist, but it is not so since after leaving the minority of age and knowing new values at that time we can for our same reason choose whether or not to take that value asown self.

Freedom is very influenced by society and in many of the occasions the human being ceases to be free since he has acquired values since childhood who have been teaching him his teachers, his parents, adults … and being an adult, he encloses himself in those valuesAnd it does not let the new enter, in this case freedom is disappearing. A clear example to understand this is:

A child born in any country that has an Islamic culture, is educated with the values it has around. The example is machismo that do not learn as if but through other knowledge they will acquire it. This child is learning that machismo is normal. When he grows he must move with his wife to Spain, this machismo that he saw normal Spanish society will see it as an act that is not well since it deprives the woman of freedom that she should have.

His wife lives this machismo as normal even in Spain, because she has been educated in a way. If this woman has been getting these ideas well in the backAnd he will also affirm what she is free because they have taught her since childhood.

Therefore, freedom is a concept that is formed from childhood, it is an individual concept since each person understands freedom in a different way.
