Becoming Self-Contained

That's my goal - to become self-contained again. Sounds strange, like I am turning into Tupperware or something! To be self-contained, you really live the true independent life. All your wants and needs are fulfilled by yourself, and you don't need anyone else. You may want someone else, but you don't need them and can live a very full life without.

Man, that's tough. To be self-contained, I have to be willing to go at it alone, to do the things I want or need to by myself, and not depend on the companionship or assistance of anyone else. If either of those two things appear, it is just icing ion the cake, a bonus. but life can and will go on and success will happen without it. If you are self-contained, you don't put any time pressures on anyone else, and you don't ask for nor need assistance. That's a hard one for me. It's tough to be willing and able to go at it completely alone. That old saying "No man is an island" is really untrue...you can be an island with a broken bridge. Or an island in shallow water - you can be accessible only if someone is willing to get a little damp.
