There is freedom in having your freedom taken away.?
What do you think?
Monks don't get to choose how they like their eggs in a monastery. They eat what is put in front of them. The freedom to eat what they want has been given away. Some that are imprisoned find a sense of freedom in not having to make decisions, in fact they will often find it difficult when they leave. Many, probably subconsciously, get themselves rearrested just to get back that freedom they had in prison in prison. Maybe it's a freedom from responsibility? What do you think?

Choice. Free will. These things can be stressful and hard to make. Not having the freedom to choose relives you of the responsibility to choose and having to deal with the consequences. The freedom from that responsibility is the freedom you speak of.

there isnt freedom in having you freedom taken away, but there is safety, my teacher explained it like this, you give up your right to drive 120 miles an hour on the highway, in exchange you get the satisfaction knowing that you are going to be safe because everyone has to follow the same rules
you can have freedom, or you can have safety, you mix the two together and you have a demeocracy

We're victims of sedition on an open sea
No one ever said that life was free
Sink, swim, go down with the ship
Just use your freedom of choice
I’ll say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
In ancient Rome there was a pawn
Who followed along and watched it fall
He cast a stone
He felt secure
He felt that he would never be heard
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom of choice!
You've been given a voice- you don't want it
It seems to be the rule of thumb
Don’t be tricked by what you see
You've got two ways to go
I’ll say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
