I'M SELF-RELIANT

My notes from the last paragraphs from "On Self-Reliance"
-be true to yourself
-change is constant and there is always room for improvement and growth
-If you rely on someone else, you loose who you truly are as an individual 
-all men(and women) have an idea of improving society but no one does anything about it
-society goes through changes but it does not improve
-Adults should acts like young boys beacause they aren't hesitant or think twice before deciding something. They speak their minds and never base what they want to say(or care) on what other people's opinions will be. 
-Society shapes peoples' way of thinking;we shouldn't let it
-We would not find out who we truly were if we conformed to society's ways
-We have to learn how to be independent. After all, you are in charge of your own life. 
-People's self esteem is measured on what each other has, not what each other is
-A well educated person would be ashamed of what he has out of their newly found respect for nature.
-we can not find peace in anything like a rise of events, propetry, materialistic things, or even other people
-nothing can bring you peace but yourself
