Independence Day

An interesting term, Independence. Defined by dictionary.com as

"n 1: freedom from control or influence of another or others [syn: independency]"

the term basically says we are free to do as we please; no one else can tell us what to do or how to do it.

I am working on an essay for this section on this very topic. I am curious, however, as to how you would define independence. Is it a concept, an abstract, a feeling, a desire, a right, a privilege? Is it automatic? Earned? Given? Deserved? Can you choose to throw it away? Abandon it?

Why is it important? Martyred? Scorned?

Independent thought, independent action.

Think about it.

I am.
