FREEDOM!!!!

wad the meanin of free????

did u ever Consider how much -- or rather how little -- you say if you say you are free. Imagine a meeting with a stranger. You know nothing about him or his predicament. He approaches you and says: 'I am free.' You are baffled. Has he just escaped from prison, from his debts, from his wife, from his sins? He has told you he is free, but he has not told you what he is free from. He has confided remarkably little.

Yet if the stranger had said: 'I am hungry', you would have known only too well what he meant. In its structure the sentence 'I am free' looks like the sentence 'I am hungry'. That resemblance is deceptive. For whereas 'I am hungry' has one meaning, 'I am free' might have any one of a vast range of possible meanings. If we are to know which of those innumerable possibilities is intended, we must know what it is that a man who says he is free, is free from. He must name a constraint, impediment or burden.

Suppose I say 'This bird was in a cage, but now it is free'; then I shall have given meaning to the words 'it is free' by saying that it was in a cage. I have said it is free from its former captivity: I have said what it is free from. Sometimes the situation in which the words are spoken is such that the impediment, constraint or burden need not be named because that factor is already understood. A divorce court judge knows when a petitioner speaks of her 'freedom', that she means her freedom from the matrimonial tie. But the context does not always enlighten. The word 'libre' on the door of a cabinet in France means 'unoccupied': the word 'free' on a similar door in England means 'no charge for admission'.

Compare the three phrases: 'to be without', 'to lack' and 'to be free from'. We use the word 'lack' when we speak of things we are without and regret we are without. 'I lack Spanish', 'I lack powers of concentration'. We use the expression 'free from' when we speak of those things we are without and are glad we are without. 'My throat is free from infection', 'The house is free from damp'. We use the words 'without' or 'has not', when we are indifferent. I say 'John Locke died without issue', because I am neither pleased about that fact nor sorry.

so
