Inside and Outside the Library Today

“Talking about independence is one thing – being truly independent is another,” says the advertisement I saw this afternoon in the magazine called FAMILY CARE, Issue 28, in our local library.

An INVACARE PEGASUS SCOOTER is advertised

DEPENDABILITY

DEPENDABILITY

and the cost is only $3,995 including GST. There is also a photo of the scooter.

Coming out of the library I am encouraged to vote for DEPENDABILITY in the upcoming Local  Body Elections in October.

From what I read inside the library and from what I read outside the library it seems to me, that I can choose between “being truly independent” and “dependability”. Do I get that right?

But I have learnt already long ago that we cannot choose between being independent and being dependent.

We are dependent beings. We are dependent on God. We are not self-existent.

ONLY GOD IS SELF-EXISTENT!
