Freedom comes with responsibility. According to David Gerrold,”Freedom is not about being comfortable. It’s about seizing and using opportunities, and using them responsibly. Freedom is not comfort. It’s commitment. Commitment is the willingness to be uncomfortable.” How do our commitments to freedom make us uncomfortable? How do we live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others?
