Dependent, Independent and Interdependent
When we need others to serve, help, teach, approve and lead, we depend on their resources.
When we depend on ourselves to serve, help, teach, approve and lead, we are independent.
When we learn to actualize our own hope and dreams, we learn to cooperate rather than compete.
We grow from dependence to independence to interdependence where all benefit.
In families and society, we depend on parents and then learn to depend on ourselves.
We crawl and walk and run and fly.
We sleep within, sleep along side, sleep in the next room and then sleep alone.
We are nursed and weaned and learn to feed ourselves and then cook and prepare food for others.
There is an appropriate path to learn and grow to become mature, yet each one follows their own.
Emotionally, we may be soothed by others and then learn to self soothe and then learn to clear our fears.
Mentally, we are taught and then teach ourselves and eventually teach others.

When we get stuck in our own growth cycle, there is usually a judgment or fear over-riding.
There is often a person or persons in our dependent state who may need someone to depend on them.

there is love
