Developing crutches is really not such a good thing. Dependency can become a habit and the inner strength to deal with circumstances gets lost somewhere deep down. It is precisely the challenges of life and our gracious adjustments to them that bring out the strength in us . It is closely related to an attempt to become largely self reliant by living within our means.
An inability to chop and change our
lifestyles makes us acquire crutches of many kinds. We are all in different
stages of evolution and so, must understand that adversity confronts us just to
challenge that spirit within us which is a toolkit that has every solution ,
provided we stay calm and positive. That itself is a challenge.
There is no need to live a life that is
under the microscope of people. Every life is, to an extent, under a microscope
and vulnerability to this aspect promotes the crutch syndrome . Because the judgement of others becomes
important enough to become a crutch for life.
When opinions start mattering, the energy
levels dip and we lose the wholesomeness of our spirit. So, a word of caution !
YOU matter to yourself. Period. How do you feel about this aspect ? How many
crutches do we walk on in the name of love and needs ?
