FREEDOM

what does freedom mean to me?

freedom, to me connotes representations of one’s ability and right to be free to do what they want. it comes back to the idea that everyone in the world has a right to equal power, equal voice and equal opinion no matter what, as introduced by theorist Aleks Krotowski. freedom to me, discards any element of discrimination that may occur in this world and instead, replace it with joy and happiness among all. there should be no limitation on how one should live their life, but of course, this should be within reason. in this modern day, people can feel so isolated and dislocated form society due to the rest of the world’s population’s need to discriminate and bully. people should feel safe and as though their lives are a place of comfort and this comes from a collective effort to encourage freedom amongst all. a freedom to express ones opinions. a freedom to dress how you wish to. a freedom to be of a certain religion and for this not to matter. freedom equals joy and this concept of joy and love should prevail all aspects of limitation. however, freedom can have its downfalls and limitations, of course can be seen as beneficial as well. a freedom to access all information on the internet of the current, social media-driven world can be dangerous and can impact teenagers of society due to a lack of filters. for me, freedom is possible through clothes; fashion. freedom, for me is expression of myself and my personality and this for me is possible through the clothes I wear and how I present myself through my appearance – something I wish to explore in my exam.

LIMITATION

what does limitation mean to me?

limitation, to me is how one may feel when trapped, isolated and in a state of no escape. this can be both in one’s mind and physically. limitation is the result of discrimination. as shown in less well-off countries in the world where children have little access the most simple of things we take for granted. limitation is the result of little money one may have. limitation can result in a dangerous outcomes and the consequences of limitation can be very negatively impactful. a limitation to the accessibility of help for mental issues is how one may become detached from the people that should be their most dear. a limitation is what can force one to believe they cannot do something, no matter what and no one should believe this; everyone can do what they wish and it comes back to the idea of equal rights, equal power and equal access. limitation is a weapon of choice for many people when stress becomes too much, when they attempt to avoid situations. limitation can result in the belief that nothing is possible. limitation should become motivation to do what you wish without the fear of being judged or doing it wrong. limits should be conquered. however, a limit can also be a positive concept. linking back to the point I made in ‘freedom’, a limit; a filter could be seen as a positive when referring to the easy accessibility of internet and what it provides. society can be harsh and one can see social media as a way to exploit the vulnerability of users. face value is not affected when on social media and is seen as an easy way to voice an opinion that the consequences of are not witnessed directly. limitation, for me is the lack of ability to be forward in my actions. I often hide-away when something is not what it seems; my sensitivity takes over. limitation for me is letting my negative thought and emotions become the engine of my body to the point of no return.
