Free and responsible

Freedom
To walk as you please
To talk as you like
To do as you wish
To live as you enjoy

Responsibility
To not obstruct as you walk
To not hurt as you talk
To not destroy as you do
To let live as you live

With freedom
Comes responsibility
No such thing as
Freedom without responsibility

Rightly said Bindhu. Liberty is a social contract, you must have heard.our freedom to do things as we please is restricted by the inconvenience to others.What Bacon (or who was it ?)said in a lengthy essay, you summarised beautifully

What about the freedom of readers...Dear blogger R U prepared to read our comments?

Bindhu Unny May 14, 2009 8:54 PM  

Shravan: :-)
have checked out malaayalam one.

KParthasarathi: Wow! Comparing me with Bacon! This was just a random thought, nothing philosophical about it.

shajkumar: Yes :-)

ബഷീര്‍: Does that mean you don't agree with my definition of responsibility? :-)

hope and love: :-)

Amal Bose: :-)

poor-me/പാവം-ഞാന്‍: Freedom to comment as you want; Responsibility to not offend as you comment
:-)

Nice one, Bindhu. Every right is accompanied with a responsibility as every action with a reaction.. Some people mistake freedom for carefree and irresponsibile living and you have nicely brought out the theme..

Your "verse" is good and I dont think it can get worse :-)
