Ujwala,

Probably others will give a shot at this, too.

"Freedom" is freedom FROM and freedom TO.  Freedom FROM want and freedom TO 
vote.  Then there is the bill of Rights--Freedom TO  assemble peacefully, and 
so on. They are ideals.

New Hampshire has a license plate--Live free or die, which is often mocked. 
HOWEVER there was an article in the NYTimes a month or so ago which said NH 
had the highest level of civic involvement of any state so you have to wonder.

There are parts of Boston which look bombed out--not much freedom there.  The 
word goes way back in our history, as you mentioned.  

Andrea
