The Will To Be Responsible

Freedom Sunday 7-2012
Post Written By Eugene Morgan

Freedom is the will to be responsible to ourselves. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

This quote is a powerful concept because our freedom is based on what we make of our life. How does being responsible make us free? The will to be responsible to ourselves is what makes us free. There is a difference between being told what to do and deciding for ourselves what we need to do. Freedom isn’t about relinquishing responsible, it’s about having the will to do what’s responsible without someone telling us what do. Most of us would rather not be told what to do.  Since we rather not be told what to do, then how come given the opportunity to make an initiative to do something we don’t follow through? The will to be responsible is not easy thing to learn. But if we want more freedom in our lives than we must take on our responsibilities.
