This really struck me. I love how you weave together reason, empathy, and responsibility, it makes freedom feel less like an abstract ideal and more like a shared daily practice. The reminder that it erodes not only in grand acts but also in silences and small excuses is powerful. It left me reflecting on where I might be silent in ways that matter.
Thanks! Although to be honest Simone de Beauvoir is a better expert on it than I am. I just try to break it down for people who think Simone de Beauvoir is related to Marge Simpson.
