The Relationship Between Freedom and Responsibility


"What is the Relationship between freedom and responsibility?" Freedom and responsibility are two words that work together a lot like, "With freedom comes responsibility." Both of these are used everyday by everyone most everywhere. Freedom and responsibility are important through out life from kid to youth to grown up. A lot of people have freedom and most everyone has a responsibility.

Responsibility is when you do something because because you know you should. It is your responsibility to go to school or do your chores, your parents sometimes remind you. Mostly you just know it is yours and do it yourself. Parents have a responsibility to take care of you, teachers have a responsibility to teach you, and students have a responsibility to go to school. Everyone has one whether they like it or not.

Freedom is something many people have and many people don't. In the U.S.A freedom is a law. In other countries freedom is sometimes taken away. Freedom tells you that you can do and think what you want as long as you aren't breaking a law. Freedom is an important and cherished thing around the world. When you have it your are thankful for it and if you don't you try your best to get it.

These two words are heard together many times. They work together and are part of each other. When you have freedom you have to have the responsibility not to break the law. Sometimes it works the other way around like in the U.S kids sometimes do their chores so they're showing their parents they have responsibility so they get more freedom. But in some places you can have a lot of responsibility and minimal freedom. That's how it works in some countries.

Freedom and Responsibility are both important and at least one is owned by everyone. They are a big part of many peoples lives ans are sometimes bad and sometimes good. So, "what is the relationship between freedom and responsibility," well it's very close. they are used by a lot of people and both have a good and bad side. Sometimes freedom is pushed to far and people brake the law and sometimes responsibilities are difficult. They are always used and you can't live without them.

My Vision, My Mission, My Legacy


Where will life take me? The question everyone has. My vision later on is to be a teacher, my mission later on is to help at least one person. Right now I would like to teach but that could change. I'm also into designing and photography. I'd like to do a lot of things, I don't exactly know where my life will take me but I'm willing to find out.

Becoming a teacher is what i would like to do in the future. My mother is a childcare director and my dad is a librarian so I've always liked to work with kids. I plan to go to college and earn a masters then maybe teach either first or third grade, or work with infants or toddlers. I work hard at my grades to be able to do this and try my best.

While I am working at this if something happens unexpectedly i would just adjust my plans. If it deals with money I would try to get a bigger loan, if i moved i would just choose a different college than one in North Carolina. Unexpected things happen and you just have to learn to adjust.

There are some goals I have during my life. Some that I'll accomplish and some I won't. Right now I'd like to get good grades and move up to eighth grade, later I'd like to graduate High School and college and pay for college, to travel especially to France, and to have a family. Goals are very important to me I like to accomplish them. Some of my goals are pretty simple and some will take some effort.

When I am older I want people, teachers, classmates, and co workers to remember me or my legacy to be a nice, caring, responsible person. I'd like my friends to remember me as funny, kind, loud, but fun. And my family, kids, and grand kids as respectful but fun, nice, and loving. Hopefully they will have some of those characteristics. What people remember me by means a lot to me I want it to be good.

So again, where will my life take me?, I really don't know from photography to designing it could be anything. For now I'm just working on going to eighth grade and graduating middle school. My vision now is not exactly clear. And my mission right now is to accomplish my goals and i want my legacy to be a good one. My thoughts may change as I grow along with my mission but I will always be mine.
