There are three kinds of freedom. The freedom from, the freedom for and just freedom.

One is 'freedom from'; that is a negative freedom: freedom from the father, freedom from the mother, freedom from the church, freedom from the society.

The second kind of freedom is 'freedom for'; that is positive freedom. Your interest is not in denying something, rather you want to create something. For example, you want to be a poet, and just because you want to be a poet.

And then there is a third freedom, the highest; in the East we have called it MOKSHA

Freedom has often been used a rallying cry for revolution or rebellion. For instance, the Bible records the story of Moses leading his people out of slavery, and into freedom. In his famous "I Have a Dream" speech Martin Luther King, Jr. quoted an old spiritual song sung by black American slaves: "Free at last! Free ...

For example, according to Thomas Hobbes an individual is free to act when the law does not prohibit an act or is otherwise silent on the matter.
