"La liberté c'est le contrôle de sa propre vie"
— Willie Nelson
Simplified Meaning:
When you have control over your own life, you can make your own choices and decisions without others telling you what to do. Think about driving a car: if you are behind the wheel, you decide where to go and how fast to drive. This is the same as freedom in life. If you choose where to work, who to be friends with, and how to spend your time, you are in charge of your own path. For example, imagine someone who works at a job they hate because their parents told them to take it. They may not feel free because they can't decide for themselves. Now, if this person starts a new job that they love and choose themselves, they feel happier and more in control. By making our own choices, we feel free and can live a life that makes us happy.
