INDEPENDENT

What is independent?
When do we become independent?
That's a question that everyone interpreted in their own way.
And the answer to that is always different.
A lot of people become independent at a young age.
But what does it take for someone to be independent?
Is it courage? Or is it being matured?
I think that stepping out of your comfort zone has a lot to do with it.
Making your own decisions also has to do with being independent.
But what does it take for someone to be fully independent, when there's still people that depends on others?
Because it's hard to be on your own, right. Especially at a young age.
To me being independent at 16/ 17 have a lot to do with the decisions of the parents or the way that they has been raised.
If you let your kids make their own decisions at a young age, you will see that these kids is gonna be more confident and independent very quick.
I don't say that the non independents are not , they just need more time to learn how to be on their own.

Maybe that's the problem. Parents unconsciously don't want their kids to be fully independent. In that way they will grow so fast and they will be leaving home too early.
Some will overprotect them because they think this world has so many danger. In fact it has but
Even if the world has that many danger these kids will grow and be mature enough to deal with whatever obstacles that will come into their way just the same as every adult has done.

I think that sometimes we need to learn to let go
Nothing stays forever
Not every person, situation or circumstance.
We need to understand that everyone wants to make their own life. With or without the decisions of others.
Being independent doesn't mean leaving your people behind. Never have any type of contact with them or don't include them in your life.
Being independent means to me be more on your own make your own decisions and if you need help don't be afraid to ask.
Caring for others and offer your help to others.
Being independent also have to do with not letting anyone interfere in your dreams, your goals.
Not letting anybody come into your way and you'll do things that people will never imagine.
Isn't that what everyone wants? To be great and successful in this life?
So why do we still stepping into each other's way to stop them from doing what they really want?
Why if everyone have a dream, why we are still fighting each other? Focus on your dreams, focus on yourself. You'll see how many people will succeed and in every aspect of their life they will become independent.
