What freedom means for Seneca is not being enslaved by false judgments, extreme negative emotions, anger, compulsions, unhappiness, anxiety about the future, a desire for external objects, feelings of emotional injury, and the opinions or actions of others. But in another sense, freedom also means belonging to yourself, living a life that is already complete, and being self-sufficient.

“As things stand, you have many piles of things heaped up all around, but they don’t satisfy you. So which do you prefer: abundance in the midst of scarcity or scarcity in the midst of abundance? […] As long as nothing is enough for you, you will not be enough for others.” - Seneca to Lucilius
