Independence

My dad once said "We aren't going to be with you guys forever, we'll eventually leave you and you'll have a family of your own. Furthermore, you got to learn how to live by yourself and only depend on your strength and capabilities." It's true, if I want something I have to earn it, I have to get good grades, work hard and play hard. If you don't work hard with your own power and depend on others all the time, how would you live in this world, no one would always be there for you to catch you when you fall and fix your mistakes, it's your problem so deal with it. Independence depends a person's ability and willingness to help themselves and trust in themselves.
