Calculus the study of what happens when one works to get closer and closer to zero, until the distance is infintesimally small. The thing about calculus is that it is impossible for those calculations to ever fully converge to that zero point. Thus, the study of calculus is simular to the dream and the definition of self-sufficiency. Because we are human, we must always rely on other humans. Rather than reject that notion that we need each other, I choose to embrace it.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          I encourage others to take what is good about the dream for you of a life of self-sufficiency and disregard the rest. Being responsible for one's own actions in this modern world is an act of bebellion. Being a rebel is just how I am wired I guess.
