Are you thankful for freedom?I am.Every day when I read about bloggers being killed, girls being put behind veils, unborn children killed because they belong to the WRONG gender.
I value my freedom.My free will.This free land I am born in.The people who made me free.That’s why on the occasion of Independence on Thankful Thursday we are writing about freedom.Read my two posts in the linky where I share my thoughts about being free!
My 10 favorite Freedom quotes
1)[bctt tweet=”“The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.” Coco Chanel” username=”misra_amrita”]
2)“Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn’t have the time to sit around and talk about you. What’s important to me is not others’ opinions of me, but what’s important to me is my opinion of myself.”
C. JoyBell C.
3)“The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” -Carrie Jones, Need
4)He who has overcome his fears will truly be free.” Aristotle
5)“If you want to rebel, rebel from inside the system.That’s much more powerful than rebelling outside the system.”Marie Lu, Legend
6)A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.”Jim Morrison
7)“I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.- Audre Lorde
8)Chains of gold are still chains.” Robert Thier, Storm and Silence
9)A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both.” Milton Friedman

The quotes are so apt Amrita. I truly believe in especially this one – “Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn’t have the time to sit around and talk about you. What’s important to me is not others’ opinions of me, but what’s important to me is my opinion of myself.”
