Robot?

Realised an unread text from a friend of mine when I was awake this morning.

Mr J: Why are people so dependant on others, relying on each others, needs others help, yet at the same time, have to be independent n not rely on others ar..?

And my reply was....

"It's a matter of choice whether to express it out or not. Everyone is actually vulnerable, lonely and needs other individuals to make a better life,despite the fact that we wont die without anyone else in our life. hence we feel the best when we have our family together and great friends around. Being independent thus, is a personality choice where in fact, we feel happier when we share, having able to be 'dependant' on the 'right' persons in our life, being pampered, cared and loved by them......For instance, take a successful surgeon doctor.. He might be a very reliable, independent man in his working circle, but once back home, he ll choose t release his vulnerable and dependant side to his wife and children. He might be good in cooking but he'd love to eat his beloved wife's cooking. He might be able to clean the home yard,garden ALL ALONE but if it is to be done along with his dearest son, it is not only a work. It is something, a work of strengthening the family bond..=)
Conclusion: We are not robots, We are human. We need each other for a better, fabulous, meaningful life. If we are solely independent(in every aspect),we are then robots.

Thanks Mr J,for giving me a second of thought, enlighten myself.
