What freedom means to me

Freedom, to me, means that I can decide my future regardless of others' opinion. To me, this also means that I can do what I want to do and behave according to my feeling. However I think I can't do such a thing now.
I think a lot of Japanese people tend to follow others. For example, in the classroom, students don't raise their hand even if they solve the questions or understand what teachers want to say. I think Japanese people, including me, have to change their way of thinking.

  1. I agree with your idea that we should change our thinking way.

  2. I think so. When my feeling tell me tiredness, I also don't want to do. Surely, Japanese tend to follow majority.

  3. I agree. In Japan the pressure to confirm is stronger than in other countries. I think they should accept diversity, the fact that it is natural that everyone has different idea.
