Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness


“Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness,” stated by Thomas Jefferson, is intended for, “We the People,” as certain unalienable rights, endowed by our creator, for U.S. citizens, and common ground for all mankind. Life, would be interpreted as the “right to live” and bears a certain quality to it, which can be denied by society. Liberty represents the right of freedoms, such as freedom of thought and freedom of behavior. However, sometimes these rights are violated and sometimes denied. Also, we might limit our right of freedoms to avoid consequences. The Pursuit of Happiness is a right and freedom intended for the people to strive for their own journey of personal happiness, with legal and reasonable limits.
