You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go... If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability. Every human has four endowments - self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change. Never stand begging for that which you have the power to earn. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves. Let every man skin his own skunk. When you learn to be alone and not feel lonely, you learn to be free. Nobody is coming to save you. save yourself. A healthy relationship is one where two independent people just make a deal that they will help make the other person be the best version of themselves.
