Hello @anomadsoul.
I certainly understand what you want to convey through your words. Give all of us for what we want is priceless, be deserving of what we have won is a unique emotion. You do not feel the same happiness when someone else makes you things, it's like you say you do not feel it was an achievement. Sometimes we have to tell our father "I can alone, let me try" and so we take off the protection of home little by little, I've been 11 years of my life since I made that decision, and your post seems great because in All aspects of life must be deserving. When we are able to achieve things by ourselves we are better people and more productive for society. I hope to see your next post.
