Dependably independent
One thing I have learnt about being an adult is that you need to be independent. I thought I had gotten that little bit covered when I moved from one country to another to live by myself. Daily I discover things I need to learn how to do, things I never thought important or even relevant for existence. Apparently as an adult, one has to constantly be pushed to an area of discomfort in other to prove some sort of adultness. I often wonder what life would have been like had I stayed in my cocoon bliss of no work. However, I find it fascinating the perseverance of human nature when faced with challenges. This is a skill I needed to learn in order to be independent while still depending on my learning curve looking ahead at my growth path.
