There's more to it when we lean towards the right people who can help us learn about the know-how of life and how we can get out of our confusing hours. Independence does not mean being alone and lonely. Independence is the courage to be our the frontline of our own path while allowing other people to support us and back us up.

I have learned that we must invest in people and improve our relationships with the right ones more than anything else. People may teach us the best lessons in the most challenging and most painful way, but there are always these people who will be our best support system. Thanks to these people who make our world a little brighter and less scary.
