Freedom within limits. That would be the garden of Eden. That is where the soul is at its best. God designed restrictions and limitations as a blessing for your soul. You and I are not God. We need constraints and restraints. We need checks and balances. God knows that, of course, and he built restraints into the form and function of every facet of life. Contrary to popular belief, not all rules are made to be broken and not all limits are meant to be tested. We need to grow in maturity until we can distinguish what restraints are healthy and submit ourselves to those restraints.
