The Myth of Self-Reliance: An encounter with Emerson’s essays
I&#x27;ll admit I&#x27;m biased in that I&#x27;m the opposite of what I think the author&#x27;s stance is but even after reading it I&#x27;m not entirely sure what their point is.<p>In my mind self-reliance, is growing and having strength unto one&#x27;s self but giving freely of that strength to others to build relationships.<p>I feel like the author is speaking to an author audience, though, so maybe that&#x27;s why the article is obtuse to me.
