You're in a conversation about freedom, but quickly get the sense that not everyone in the conversation is using the word in the same way. You’re both using the word “freedom” but mean completely different things by it.
What would you say?
Definitions matter. For a good conversation to even be possible, the terms we use need to be clear. One word in need of careful definition today is the word freedom. Just about everyone believes in freedom, but not everyone means the same thing by freedom.
So, the next time you find yourself in a conversation about freedom, here are two things to keep in mind:
Number 1: A lot of people use “freedom” to mean doing whatever they want as long as no one gets hurt. But that’s an incorrect definition.
Number 2: True freedom is being able to do what you ought to do, not just what you want to do.
