The Illusion of Free Will

Hello to all hive users πŸ€—β€οΈπŸ™ Hope you all are healthy and doing great in your lifeπŸ™‚

Today, almost all countries have become independent, and independence means that its citizens can live their lives freely. They don't need to ask permission to do anything, nor are they restricted by anything. When a country is enslaved, the enslaver controls it according to their own will, dictating how to live, how to work, and many other things that a person living in a rural country faces. Being a free person means that they don't need anyone's permission to do anything, such as what to eat, where to go, when to sleep, when to get up, and how much to do for work. All these things matter to a person, because if a person's right to live freely is taken away, what will happen? You can imagine how difficult that would be.

Now the biggest question is whether a person who claims to be free is truly free from everything. This is a matter of great concern. From childhood, we see that we have to follow many rules and there are many types of disciplines that we have to observe and work according to. Now, while being disciplined is not a wrong thing, it is a good habit. But the question is, does being disciplined and following rules violate our freedom? Many people live here because they have to follow the rules of society and think about them. No matter what understanding you live in, you have to observe many rules and do many things that make you feel unfree because you have to work under rules, which many people do not like. I am not saying that this is a violation of freedom, but many people do not like it.

There are many other aspects of society like this. Now, as you must have noticed if you work, how difficult it is to work these days because there are so many layoffs, which always keeps the job at risk. Now, if someone wants to leave their job and start their own business or switch jobs, some people are not free to do that either. I am saying this because you must have seen that if someone thinks of switching jobs and doing something else, then they are burdened with responsibilities. Now, if someone has a family and is the sole breadwinner, they can't quit their job because doing so would be too risky. They'd be burdened by responsibilities. This is why they can't even consider taking another job or starting another business, no matter how brilliant their ideas are. They'll always wonder, "If I lose my job, who will take responsibility for my family?" "What if I don't find a better job or my business doesn't work?" This poses the biggest risk, and this fear lives within them. Now, if someone wants freedom, they can easily make this decision because they won't have any responsibilities. Therefore, there are many aspects of society that involve various factors.

Within the same society, some individuals are independent, while others, despite being independent, have increased responsibilities. Therefore, we cannot say that a person is completely independent. Now, if a person is working and does not like their job or the work environment, they cannot leave because doing so would involve the risk of not finding a new job or something else. The foundation is always there, and this is what shows that the person is not independent. If we look at the definition of complete independence, very few people will be able to define it themselves. Being completely independent means that a person does any work, does not need anyone's permission, can do whatever they want, whenever they want, has no restrictions, and is not subject to any kind of foundation. If this type of person exists and their life is like this, then we can say that they are completely independent.

    I affirm that no one is independent. Because in one way or the other, you may need the company of others.

    You did a nice job.
