What is freedom? To all of us it is a different definition to our lives. Some of us have the great honor of living and experiencing freedom while others are faced fighting for their own. When I hear the word freedom I see Canada and how we can make our own decisions in life and we all have our rights. I see myself choosing my path with no one questioning what I do. I see peace in the world where no wars will be seen and everyone will be happy. Most of all I see people smiling because they know they are safe and happy with their lives and their families will be safe. I as a person am affected by Egypt's protest for freedom. Before I never knew much about Egypt. I never knew that this was happening in the world until I discussed it in class and heard it over the news. Because they protested they have changed for the better and has made a difference in many lives. Most of all they inspired me. They inspired me to make a difference and realize that out there, there are people suffering for something I have and I take for granted. I want to change this I want to see the whole world to have freedom and to be able to live mostly like I am where I have rights and freedoms in my country. Now everyday I will notice that I wake up with a smile and others don’t, but they all have hope and I hope that this will be enough to keep them going each day.
