Independence Day
July 6th, 2010 by DreamsforKids | Filed under Tom Tuohy |The United States recently celebrated Independence Day, in honor of the Declaration of Independence, which officially declared our countries independence from Great Britain. Of course, we have since become great allies. It begs the question – isn’t this what we all strive for? Independence, our freedom to be who we are is what allows us to truly come alive.
Whether at home, work or play, don’t we all crave a sense that we truly are not dependant on another and that we can survive on our own and, indeed, thrive? The irony is none of us can go it alone. We know this; we just don’t want to be controlled, and to lose our identity to another. The strongest relationships are those among strong independents, sure of themselves and trusting of their partner to allow them to be just as certain of who they are. Together, their individual skills can complement one another and they can create something greater than the sum of the parts.
Its takes trust to allow someone to be who they are. Some parents struggle with letting their children be who they wish to be, and on their own terms. Spouses and partners too often control the magic and love right out of the relationship. Business collaborations can become anything but when one or both attempt to control what is theirs, share less, and take more. Teachers fail when they attempt to mold a student into their own image.
Independence is really about letting go. As with all greatness, it is only when we let go, that we have a chance to experience all that is possible. The greatest love, the astounding partnership, the brilliant student, the accomplished artist, the world class organization; all of them require independence to succeed. Trust your heart, believe in who you choose to work and play with in life. Let them go, allow them to be – and you will be rewarded beyond measure.
