because we want to believe we are responsible for others;
because we tend to believe others need us;
because we choose to believe we are slaved by certain situations.
no..nobody needs anybody..for spiritual path.
and people are all free.
we answer to our own quest for this life at free will.
every one shall go figure out what's his own cross to carry, then work thru it as much as possible.
try not to spend another life on the same topic over and over again.
still looking for more answers, higher purpose..more of the myth need to reveal..
