The literal definition is pretty much the same for everybody:
freedom - Definitions from Dictionary.com (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/freedom)
The personal meaning is literally different to everybody...

Janis Joplin: "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." Ironically she died of drug overdose, but I don't think that's what she had in mind.

The meaning of freedom is ABSENCE OF OPPRESSION. That's it.

The meaning of oppression is TO BE BURDENED, SUBDUED AND FORCED TO PERFORM ACTIONS IN THE INTEREST OF OTHERS BY HARSH AND WRONGFUL USE OF POWER AND AUTHORITY.

The meaning of tyranny is GOVERNMENT OPPRESSION.

There you have -- what freedom is.
