    The document discusses the relationship between freedom and responsibility. It argues that true freedom is not simply the ability to act without constraints, as exercising freedom through our actions inevitably connects us to being responsible for the consequences of those actions. It provides examples of how making debt payments, relying on income from investments, or needing to work for a living means we are not completely free of various systems. The document also considers different definitions of both freedom and responsibility.

    Freedom and

    Responsibility
    E DWARD B. ACABAL , L PT

    SHS FOCAL PE RSON


    Are you free?

    Think about it carefully.

    If you are making payments


    on anything, you’re not free
    of debt.

    If your income depends on


    investments, you’re not free
    of capitalism.
    If your house is jammed with stuff, you’re not free of materialism.
    If you must work for a living, you’re not free.

    Why?
    Because once you choose to use your freedom – to exercise it – your
    actions connect you to your responsibility for them.
