My Diary: Freedom of Expression

By -

The Words "Freedom of Speech" and "Freedom of Expression" define itself, its meaning, and what it stands for.


But I would like to share my thoughts with my Expression.

From my point of view, Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Expression are fundamental human rights. This is the Freedom to express opinions in any form and media without force or sensors.


Freedom is a word that began with the word 'Free'; it doesn't mean it comes for free. Either we earn through our hard work, sacrifice something valuable to earn it, or fight for our rights and achieve the value of Freedom. It is a constitutional and cultural value.


The value of Freedom is always challenging to achieve and protect but easy to lose. It demands social awareness to understand the value and responsibility of protecting it. Freedom of Speech and Expression is not just a written word we read and forget. It is essential to understand the value of Freedom of Speech and keep establishing it by practicing.


In some countries, the value of Freedom of Speech doesn't exist. At the same time, in some countries, Freedom of Speech or Expression is higher than religious value.


If you plant a tree and don't give it the Freedom to grow up, you cut its branches or roots. Ultimately, it is not going to be an ordinary tree; it is going to be a bonsai tree.


We are not trees but human beings; we live our lives from birth til death, and our principles are the same. As human beings, we all deserve the right to Freedom of speech and Expression. We are free to think whatever we like and have the right to express our thoughts and opinions.


There is a word called "Unlimited". I think nothing is unlimited on this Earth. Everything has its limited boundary. I think Freedom also has limitations. Freedom doesn't mean we can grab or destroy other personal rights or property. We are the people who draw our boundaries and live the way we want to celebrate life. Freedoms mean respect and responsibility to self and others.


Let us respect other persons' Freedom of Speech and Expression and learn to tolerate others' opinions. Respect the diversity. And live a harmonious life on Earth with peace.
