Answer Me a simple Question are you really independent or independence from your society ?
If i have to answer this question
i probably say no.
Let's check the literature.
Independent (adjective) means free from outside control; not subject to another's authority.
&
Independence (noun) means the fact or state of being independent.
If you have read the above statements properly given, you will find them incomplete.
Nobody actually known what "free from outside control" means because outside has different meaning for different people.
Have you ever spent a day independently, mean with your own will and without caring of anyone and anything. I don't think so but if did it then you can probably can call yourself independent.
According to me independent means doing all things by our own will without caring of other thought.
Take an example : small children of India
have to wear white dress and go to school at early in the morning on their independence day, it doesn't matter if they really want to go or not. Whether they know the real reason beside all that stuff or not, if you call it independence than dependence can be a better option.
That's why I travelled 1000 km to my home by my own will, to feel how independence fell & believe me it feel best among all other feelings.
So a Warm and Happy
InDependence Day to all....
Wish you get independence from Outside!!! & Inside.
