"Our dependency makes slaves out of us, especially if this dependency

I get it, but for me, the world is other people. I may not be dependent upon it but your encouragement empowers me, and mine empowers others. What makes this a wonderful world is all that good stuff other people do because they want to -- and I want to bring something to the party, too. I suppose you could say that the 'good world' is dependent upon it -- does that make us slaves to keep up our end?  -- E Archer, NYC      2
