List down the freedom that you are longing for and evaluate yourself how it (they)

will help you become a genuine rational being.

The freedom that I yearn for is the ability to make decisions on my own without fear
of my parents interfering. But, in the process, I encountered and overcame numerous
hurdles and eye openers that made me realize what I needed to learn. It helped me
realize that our parents are guiding and making decisions for us because they
genuinely care about our well-being. I can say that in making my own decisions, I
became an independent person at some point, but at the same time, I discovered how
vital it is to consult our parents while making decisions.
