I bought and read an easy book called It was a book for elementary school children whose philosophical concepts began to be captured. There is this story in this book. We think we need to be able to do whatever we want, but there are many things that we can't do because of our own physical and environmental conditions or limitations. So to be truly free, we have to know how to choose something, but we also have to be courageous to give up. In the end, we talk about limited freedom. We cannot enjoy unlimited freedom in this society. And there's a more philosophical story in this book. The prisoner can be free if he accepts his situation and keeps hope. I wondered if this would be understood by fourth grade children. Even if the body is tied, the mind can freely create something and dream beyond the walls of the prison. Hope is what makes it possible. So the requirement of freedom is hope. The book also says that because freedom is one of human rights, everyone has the right to be free. So humans always say that they have to fight for their freedom. Because freedom does not end with one gain, you have to fight over and over again. And in order for everyone to have the right to be free, we must respect each other's freedom and not limit the freedom of others.

I think that it is the history of the struggle for freedom, if we look at the history of humanity, Particularly the history of Korea is the history of struggle for democracy. And we have experiences of liberation from colonial oppression and of driving out tyranny. But have we really been free since then? Are we suffering from another oppression and restraint? How many people can confidently say that they are truly free?

Freedom, the best value of life  (0) 2019.12.03

One time, I was stuck with the word freedom, so I worked hard to find the data and research. First, I examined the encyclopedia about how freedom is defined. But I was confused. There were many definitions, concepts, and principles of freedom, and the kinds of freedoms varied from legal freedom, political freedom, economic freedom, and social freedom.

The first definition of freedom, in an encyclopedia, is that 'freedom generally refers to the state of being as it exists and to the things that one wants to do without being bound or controlled by both inside and outside. But philosophically it is not possible to determine what this freedom is, and Sartre said that freedom is close to punishment and that engagement is true freedom. In Buddhism, death is called freedom, while in Taoism, it is called freedom to reject freedom of civilization and desire and live naturally. '

This definition has made me think that freedom is a very diverse concept and a fun concept to study. It's worth studying.

Each person will be able to say with confidence that this freedom I have felt, is true freedom that cannot be replaced with anything. So I want to say about 'freedom' based on a lot of books I read and the movies I watched.

What is freedom?  (0) 2019.12.04

 

 

Even though,

she is an owner of the absolute power

that makes me exist in the world,

and even though

she is a governor of all things

that makes me live in the world,

 

she begs and begs

with shabby clothes dressed.

and always serves for odd things,

nevertheless, she just eats bad languages.

 

Even though she holds

the whole economical power of household,

she cannot buy a bowl of noodle for herself.

 

She is a tolerating woman

But she is a large hearted like the ocean

 

In the morning,

she is following me

with a glass of milk held,

 

If I miss breakfast and sneak out,

she spanks the back of my head.

 

She has packed more than two luncheons for me

since I was a student.

 

When I reject bean as a luncheon

because I dislike to eat,

she beats me with a brush for sweep.

 

She is a terrible woman,

but she is a woman who contains a deep love

in her heart.

Even though she has a too much pain in her legs,

she does housework with her daughter carrying on the back ,

as creeping through the home.

 

Even though she feels sick,

she never misses caring about her children.

 

Even though I am often angry at her intervention,

She is the first woman who I ask an advice

when I have difficulties.

 

Even though I have matters great and small,

She is the first woman who I inform of my great things.

 

When I shed tears or she shed tears,

we shed tears together,

because we have common in much tears.

 

When I smile or she smile,

we smile together,

because we have common in much smile.

She is a weak woman,

But she is the strongest woman

who makes people depend on her.
