Are You Independent?

Hey, Hope you are doing fine and your family is well.

This blog, I’ll share some of the things circling around in my mind since some months, just to put it out here and if it helps anyone that would be good.

Since some time, I’ve stopped feeling the motivation to do anything in life, may that be studies, working out physically or dealing with the issues in my head without ignoring them.

We all saw in the past year or so that life is very uncertain. You don’t know what could happen the next second, maybe you meet someone or loose an important part of your life or fulfill your dreams or even die.

Dependancy is a huge part of a person’s life. We all have different definitions of being independent. Most people feel financial freedom is being independent, and others feel live alone is being independent.

What I feel is that we can never be completely independent, even when you have financial freedom or you have ability to live far away from your loved one’s, or go to places without anyone’s help, You always need some love and support from other’s.

Now some might think self love and self support is enough to survive, and yes they might be right. For sometime you might go forward without external love or support, but you won’t go far enough. In everyone’s life there comes a point where they need to feel external love or support may it be through sense of touch or just by feeling the energy around.

You might think that monks who are meditating in complete solitude might be independent, no my friend you are wrong again. The monks are depending upon their belief of being able to get closer to god and for that they leave themselves fully dependant on god.

What I understood in last couple of days is that dependancy can only be decreased to some extent but it cannot be completely ended. Now that extent is different in everyone’s life and it depends on how you define being independent in life.

These were my views on the topic, let me know what you think in the comments section below.
