 YOUR TRIP!!!
Hi guys, are you ready with
a new challenge?
If you do, then let me help
you to explore about
freedom of the human
person.
 In your journey, you will be able
to understand the human person’s
freedom and show situations that
demonstrate the freedom of choice
and consequences of choices.
 Realize that all actions have consequences;
 Evaluate an exercise prudence and choices;
 Realize that:
a. choices have consequences
b. some things are given up while other
are obtain in making choices.
DID YOU KNOW THAT...
 The only exception to this rule is when an
absolute choice harms or delimits the self and
others.
 It can be compared to a cause and effect
relationship where a decision concludes with
a corresponding effect on the person or the
environment.
 Freedom of choice also includes the way one
acts towards another. All forms of action,
therefore, are brought about by a person's
decision to accomplish them.
 All decisions, big or small, have corresponding
consequences which may be good or bad.
The ability to exercise one's freedom in any manner is
called freedom of choice. By law, all human beings
are entitled to make decisions for themselves in
whatever way they choose to.
 Freedom is the power or right to act, speak, or think
as one wants without hindrance or restraint.
 The freedom to choose stops when there
is risk or harm that may be inflicted on the self or
other people.
 Prudence is an act of making a good judgment
that allows a person to avoid risks.
 All forms of action are brought about by a
person’s decision to accomplish them.
 Religious and cultural practices may limit one’s
freedom of choice.
