To act is not to be free

to act is to say that we decide to move, is the process of doing. but it is not the action alone, i believe it is accompanied with an intention, that motive that incites us to do what we want to do and to concrete the action. acting for an intention is to satisfy a need, that need that either its fundamental for people or that need we had produced from another need. many people i know say that they are not free because their parents prohibid them a lot of things, but i say that they are still free because they decide to obey or disobey and that is what action is about. action itself is not so important, but the things that accompany the are important, what is expected and the reason for doing the action are also important. it could not be that you act without an intention, maybe you don't have clear what the intention is but still maybe in the unconscious you can identify the intention. i believe that people expect freedom to be liberty of action and that is not freedom for me. for me freedom is everything involved with the action, freedom of deciding the intention freedom of acting it and freedom to be responsible or not of the consequences, and many people don't expect freedom to be like that but they could consider it, freedom can be misunderstood with other concepts and that is why everyone needs to read more about freedom or talk about it so that other people can understand what freedom has, not only the action, the consequences of it too.
