To be honest, everyone needs support because we cannot do life alone; if we try, it becomes lonely, stressful, hectic, and exhausting.
Life is a conglomerate of contrasting events moving in different directions, and because human life is limited, our resolve is inflexible, and there is only so much we can do, we require support.
Money is not all
When we talk about "support," money is often the first thing that comes to mind, but we all know that money is only one of many options. There is the practical support of pure kindness, which can leave us indebted indefinitely.
There is the impractical support of friendship, as well as the natural love that motivates others to do the right thing for us. This is how people can go from nothing to everything; they take advantage of every little kindness shown to them in order to build their own strong foundation.
Does it come with benefits?
Look at infants: they are fragile, tiny, and cry all the time. A mother holds them for 10 months until they are born, and they continue to receive this support until they are 18.
Imagine being dependent for more than 18 years of your life; what has the mother gained by sacrificing everything for that time? Probably nothing, except that they are responsible for providing this support due to the love that is naturally transferred from mother to child.
Without support, life is practically impossible. Almost everyone had been given, nurtured, pushed, encouraged, motivated, or even assisted in various ways. It is the very basis of our existence.
Support is structured like a ladder. Notice how you need to combine various steps to scale? How each and every steps plays a significant role, and how only of the steps is nothing, except the other steps play their role?
If you remove each of those steps, they are now known as sticks on their own, despite the fact that they were once part of an important tool called a ladder.
This is to say that people can be useless on their own because they are not a part of anything, or they are a part of something but it is not a part of them.
People can find themselves in situations where they do not belong, doing things that are not appropriate for their abilities, gifts, health status, frame of mind, or mentality. Many people can easily get stuck in the wrong place because they understand the fundamental principle of "not doing life alone."
An Inner CT
An inner cycle is analogous to a group of people who support, network, help, and push themselves.
While the foundation of this union is primarily transactional, we must recognize that clearly defined transactional relationships are superior to love that appears real on the surface but is actually fabricated in reality.
Everyone needs one of these in their lives, because the most beneficial relationships are based on transactionality rather than pure love. Transactionality is not bad; you can lift someone today, and they will lift you tomorrow.
I am not saying you should rely on this for the rest of your life; rather, it is important to be available to provide value, even in unexpected places, because you never know when you will be the one in need of the same support you provided.
Fit in
It is why you need to find a place to fit in, because, let us be honest, only your immediate family members will be forced to attend profess their love for you, especially in matters of urgency, even if they do not want to.
However, once you find a place to fit in, you can start to build support, accumulating some "I owe you" and "you owe me." These things take time, but they are generally necessary and important in life.
