Are you free?

"What is society? A set of values, a set of rules, regulations and traditions, is it not? If you merely fit into that framework, are you free? Surely, if you are free and have cultivated your intelligence you will find out what is the best thing for you to do. 

You will brush aside all traditions and do something which you really love to do, regardless of whether your parents or society approve or disapprove. Because you are free, there is intelligence, and you will do something which is completely your own, you will act as an integrated human being."

Jiddu Krishnamurti
