My T asked me that question once. My answer was to quote Solzhenitsyn who said (more or less) "The man is most truly free who has nothing left to lose." Or "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." if you prefer the Kris Kristopherson version. Now that I'm reading the other comments here, I might be understanding why I got kind of a funny look from my T, when I answered the question the way I did. LOL

I would really love to live a day without fear. Guilt is one I can't even allow myself to let go of as much as I sometimes think I'd like to. I deserve my guilt, I would be evil be definition if I didn't feel it. But to have no fear. Now that would be enough freedom for me.

Recently, freedom for me partly seems to be doing what I would really like (though that has to have certain constraints, to be reasonable.) But the "what I'd really like" seems connected to what I'm really feeling, and who knows what that is!!! :confused: This all seems very onion-like, layers and layers. Very confusing.

It's a significant freedom, to be able to work on this, and have some very good resources available.

When I have a lasting sense of safety, I will finally feel freedom!

Freedom is being able to choose, not trapped by fear in inflexibility. Freedom feels like dancing to me.
