Answer 2

Nelson Mandela had different concepts of freedom at different stages of life. He thought he was born free. As a boy he had an illusion about freedom. As a boy he had the freedom to run in the fields, swim in the stream and ride on the back of bulls.                                                                  

As a student, he can stay out at night, read the books of his choice and go where he liked.          

When he became young man he yearned for the basic and honourable freedoms of achieving his potential, earning his keep, marrying and having family and living a lawful life.

Slowly, his concept of freedom widenend specially when he joined African National Congress. He realised that true freedom is not individual freedom but freedom for all.
