So, this week's ponderings go into the department of freedom. When we're young, we yearn for freedoms. From what I've seen, this is most commonly show through partying and rebellion of sorts in the teenage years. People fall into this pitfall, and think it makes them cool, because they can supposedly do whatever they want.

Now, I'm not saying any of this as a jealous person, I'm saying it from an observational perspective. There's nothing wrong with having a social life, but it can mislead sensible people in the sense that they see what looks like freedom, but it's just showing off. This theory only applies in Instagram accounts that are fully that and nothing else, as if these people only party and never do everyday tasks.

We all know that they don't party all the time, but it can make people feel insecure as if they don't have an outside life because it isn't whatever "that" is called. I assure you it's nothing to be jealous of, because there are people who are being creative and doing better things with their time than posting about this amazing, social life. This doesn't mean that no one can party ever, but it shouldn't be rubbed in people's faces either.

This became more of a venting post, but I wanted to mention something I realized the other day. When people have too much freedom, they fall into these traps where they believe what they get into because of that freedom is cool. Partying is great, but it fades. When the partying disappears, reliances start happening and more often than not, these people are in the same place they were when they were younger. They were pushed in the direction of recklessness instead of finding a calling and following it.

My basic point here is that while these people use their freedom to do whatever they want, while creative people use their freedom to create and find ways to effectively show how they feel and how things make them feel. It seems great to have that freedom, but it's even better to use that time to find yourself instead of giving in to what looks like freedom, when it's really a distraction from what you're supposed to focus on, and that's finding you. The "you" that impacts people forever.
