Our conception of freedom is self-indulgent. Look at your role model, and see what they've done with their freedom.
Here are some freedoms that are worth fighting for, imho:
Freedom from greed
Freedom from lust
Freedom from envy
Freedom from sloth
Freedom from vanity
Freedom from addictionsssssssssss
Freedom from depression, paranoia, schizophrenia
Freedom from boredom
Freedom from fear
Freedom from hate
Freedom from evil
----
Freedom from the self
freedom from boredom
I was never able to be free from boredom... I really really feel just like a vegetable down here in the farm...

i think it all comes down to freedom from addictions. greed, lust, etc - even depression n boredom - are all addictions. if it has more control over u than u have over it then it's an addicition. n the freedom u seek is the ability to regain that control. as gibran's prophet says:
"you shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care nor your nights without a want and a grief, but rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound."
good luck :)
