Response of Self Reliant

I strongly agree with this little paragraph off of the reading "A political victory, a rise of rents, the recovery of your sick, or the return of your absent friend, or some other favorable event, raises your spirits, and you think good days are preparing for you. Do not believe it. Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles."    I agree with it because that is true.  You're accountable for the things you do,  feel or say. You're responsible for all of that. Not a single man can take that from you. Not a single man can tell you how to feel or say or do. You bring peace to yourself. A better day will be the day you decide to break out of those "jail cages" and be independent and not worry if society will take in for who you are. Be the sheep who guides the others not one who follows. Follow your heart and you'll bring happiness to yourself and that's what matters.
