Freedom, one of the nicest 70 English words, always suggests a right of everyone in a democratic society. When it comes to the freedom of choice, there are always a host of different opinions held by different individuals in different fields. Do most people prefer restrictions and regulations to absolute freedom of choice? Admittedly, every person is willing to have the right to pursue his/her basic freedom, which reflects the nature of a democratic society. However, on many occasions people tend to one can never expect absolute freedom of choice without a single restriction or regulation. In fact, freedom is a relative concept and we should pursue freedom of choice with certain limits that cannot be obviated.
As for the basic freedom, everybody has the right to pursue it. UYou can choose your hairstyle, the color of your shirt; you can decide which restaurant to have lunch and what kind of laptop you will buy. And women should have their right to care about dress and to go to work, as well as children should have their right to play together and to go to the same school. For all black people, as Martin Luther King, the great black civil rights leader said, the basic freedom to choose to stop all discrimination should not be deprived. History is always replete with such examples.U Actually, in a democratic society, no one could deny your pursuit of your basic freedom of choice in your life.
