Season greetings to everyone, I hope we all are excited about the approaching weekend?
As for me, I'm going to make the best out of it.
In deliberating upon the course of study "Independence", you see that independence is a concept that many of us, as individual, as a nation strive for throughout our lives to obtain.
Good to know that independence is the ultimate ability to take action and make decisions without external forces or without relying on others for approval and support. We must know that most independence are naturally, but some is a journey that takes time and effort to achieve and that was the one I experienced and faced.
I can recalled the very first time I experienced or felt independent was when I got admitted into the university and I had to moved out of my parents' house since it's was far away from my parents house. It was really a big step taken by me, as I had always been quite dependent on my parents for support and guidance. But as I settled into my new life on school campus, I discovered that I was able of taking care of myself and making decisions on my own.
The picture used is mine except otherwise stated.
Living on my own for the first time was both liberating and challenging. I had to learn how to manage my time, budget my money, and take care of myself without my parents' help. It was a steep learning curve, but I embraced the opportunity to grow and become more self-reliant.
During my stay in campus I had to deal with one situation and that stands out to me as a true test of my Independence, I had a falling out with a coursemate but had to navigate the conflict without the intervention or support of anyone else. It was a tough situation, but I handled without my parents and that shows the level of my maturity and grace, and it made me realize just how far I had come in terms of my independence.
Truly as I sit to recall and reflect on the process of my independence, I discovered that all the challenges have molded me into the man I am today. The process have taught me all the importance of resilient, confidence and above all self-reliance. I have learned that independence is not just about having money to care of oneself but also about being able to stand up for yourself when called upon.
I will conclude by saying whether independence comes naturally or it's takes process, what you should know is that the mindset and feeling of being fully independent is actually liberating and empowering to the person involved. You believe with me that it's a big sign of maturity and growth, to face our fear, weakness and navigate the various life's challenges with utmost confidence.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and do well to reach out to me through the comments session.
