emotionally independent

Stephen Covey said that 'Interdependence is better than independence.'

I don't think so. I think it's better that we are left to be emotionally independent but at the same time giving as much love as possible without expecting nothing in return for a person who is emotionally independent, is able to stand on her own feet. She knows that a human-being is not the only sole reason to make her happy. Her joy lies in her act of giving. She is in the state of happiness all the time even though every person in the world dislikes her. She is compassionate and affectionate to everyone around her no matter how they treat her. No single person on earth can hurt her because her hope is not in them. She believes that this universe is so huge that her grief has no value and capability to affect the material world.

For some people, it takes a person to make their world go round. But for an emotionally independent person, she needs not a single person. Her strength is in her belief that God is by her side all the time, that He is closer than her jugular vein.

Well, I am not one. I am not qualified to be one, I let myself to be hurt. But I want to be one which takes guts. A heart with a disease must be healed. This battle must be won!

Hi..
Kita dijadikan adalah untuk saling bantu membantu. Walaupun kita dalam kesusahan dan tiada orang yang membantu, tetapi sebenarnya ada "orang" yang sedang memerhati kesusahan kita. pertolongan mereka mungkin kita tidak nampak....

ini pendapat sy yang sgt cetek ilmu..kewujudan jemaah ini bukanlah untuk memecahkan umat islam tetapi lebih kpd bekerja scr berkumpulan sebagaimana firman Allah dalam surah as-saff..Allah lebih menyukai mereka yang bekerja dalam barisan yang teratur.. seandainya tidak wujud organisasi ini sekalipun, pasti akan wujud jamaah lain yang menyahut sarana ini untuk bekerja berkumpulan. setiap jemaah ada keistimewaan sendiri dan menurut pendapat peribadi sy, perbedaan ini akan lebih memudahkan jemaah2' saling 'pin-point' kelemahan masing-masing.. lagipun kewujudan jemaah ini bertitik-tolak dari fakta yang umat islam tidak memiliki khalifah untuk memimpin mereka..jadi dakwah oleh kumpulan ini penting untuk memahamkan masyrakat akan kepentingan khalifah..
byk yg tidak tahu khalifah itu apa.. ini fenomena yg sgt menyedihkan.. mereka tidak tahu islam itu meliputi seluruh aspek kehidupan, yang mereka tahu islam itu hanya menjadi rujkan dalam aspek ibadah, fiqh.. pdhal ia semua..lantas byk yg meyakini demokrasi sbg bentuk kempimpinan yg plg sesuai..itu shaja..semoga Allah mengampunkan saya andai saya tersilap
