In this unpredictable world, You always have to be prepared for the unforseen. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. That's what they say. In your life, people will come and go. Some will be your fair-weather friends who will be with you till the day they need you. Few will stay forever. Its really hard to sift out these few main characters from the many extras in the stage of life.
I think we should learn to be emotionally independent to be prepared for anything. I know its hard to do that. But we will have to.

But I am scared. The very thought scares me. I pray to God to never put me in that situation. I guess we all have to learn to stay strong.

I read somewhere that if we live our life from purpose, we live a peaceful life then too.
To live from purpose, we need to prepare for the best, and hope for the best too.
Our purpose moves us past the worst, which just turns into steps to our purpose, with the right attitude.
Emotional independence might sound good, but we should move past emotional stances to the deeper connection of love, which removes all emotional nuances, and allows us to just compassionately love all, then instead.

Good point. To be self-dependent is the key.

I'm prepared for everything. Even for the worst. I feel I can manage myself even when I have no money.

Indeed, there will come a time when everyone leaves, and you are left with only yourself.

oh late reply.
I mean not depend on others to satisfy your emotional needs. Like for example, you are feeling down and suddenly your good frnds arrive and you are all bubbling with energy. Or someone close to you told yu something bad, and yu becomme sad. You are giving others the power to control your emotions
