Some people believe that they are free, particularly in making their own decisions. But as for me, I don’t feel free because I believe that a lot of external factors influence making my own decisions.
First and foremost, sometimes our family makes decisions for us like you must wear these clothes and you must choose these courses. For example, when I finished tenth grade, I decided to choose the arts stream because it is easiest as compared to medical, non-medical, and commerce, but my parents forced me to choose the medical stream because they thought that this stream was best for me to study as compared to other streams. They do not want to know about my interest. Thus, at that time I am totally dependent on my parents to make a decision for my life.
Moreover, when we make any decision, it depends on our budgets. If we do not have enough money, we are not able to make decisions on our own, that time we depend on someone else or our parents. For example, last year I wanted to buy a Honda car for myself and my family because when we use public transport, it takes a lot to reach our destination. If I have my own private vehicle, I reach my destination very easily and I am also able to save time. When I went to the shop and told them that I wanted to buy a Honda car, they presented a lot of colors to me. Finally, I like a car, when I asked them what the price of that car was, they said eleven lakhs. I was totally shocked. I was not able to buy a car because I did not have enough money to buy that car. I felt very shy at that time because my friends were also with me. So, when we make any decision, it depends on our budgets also. We are not free to make our own decisions according to our own needs.
Furthermore, people, including me, take a lot of responsibility when they do any job and household work. Sometimes they do not have enough time to do things for themselves to relax their mind and for their family because of work pressure. They are more likely to depend on jobs and household work as compared to making some decisions on their own because of lack of time, as well as workload.
Having said all of the above, I don't consider myself completely free, particularly in the context of making my own decisions, because there are many things that affect that.
