Freedom.
::The capacity to exercise choice; free will. The condition to be free of restraints.

Free of restraints? Free to make your own decisions, live the life you choose. I guess these restraints are what personalizes freedom. What restraints are there in your life? Political, religious, family? What sets you free?

Until today I hadn't truly thought of what freedom means to me. I don't think I realized how free I really am.
Free to travel, to pick up and go. Free to chase my dreams, in every way possible- even if they do change just about everyday. I cherish this freedom. I have just begun to get a taste of what lies ahead.

I was terrified all the way down to the marrow in my bones today. I got some news that shocked me to the core. This news that took all the air out of my lungs came from my best friend, and while it stunned me she was truly excited and elated by it. We are very unique individuals, we all define our personal freedom differently, and today was an excellent example of that.
