Freedom is transforming into someone who is having self-determination, choosing and thinking for themself, and letting go.

I used to have a hard time showing emotions and making decisions for myself, and I always heard, “you have to do what is best for you,” but I never knew how. I would keep my thoughts to myself and never really told people how I felt, so I would write it down in my journal about what was going on. I showed my freedom by starting to choose and having self-determination. My freedom started with getting rid of all the negative people and thoughts that would make me feel worse. I was able to express myself by explaining my thoughts, about what I was feeling, and have freedom by thinking, having self-determination, and learning to let go. This is important because it helped me reflect and see different ways of freedom, and it taught me a lot about myself that has helped me evolve.
