Dependence

My wife has an electronic sewing machine, which cost about $ 2,000. This evening, she was sewing something with that machine. I asked her if the machine could work without electric or not. She said ‘No.’ It was not a manual one.
So, I am thinking that if I send this very valuable sewing machine to my sister who is living in very poor and remote area of Burma, how it will be? Nothing. They do not have electric. So, what is value of this machine in that area? It still will be cost, but not to use in the area, but to sell to people who will carry that machine in the other area where the electric works. I mean the potential of that machine in that village is ‘nothing.’
Then, I remembered my life in Army. Sometimes, I was thinking about a gun without bullet. Without bullet, a gun means almost nothing. A stick is much better and useful than a gun without bullet. Then, I am also thinking about a car, a brand-new car without gas. Again, it is also almost ‘nothing.’
Can you imagine about that how things are essentially but terribly depending on each other? Naturals. Manmade. Especially manmade materials; there are many things- without something, another one is almost nothing.
Without a buyer, a seller means - nothing.
Without a listener, a speaker means - nothing.
Without a follower, a leader means - nothing.
Without a receiver, a giver means - nothing.
Without a viewer, beauty means - nothing.
Without a shorter, nothing will be taller.
Without a smaller, nothing will be bigger.
Without a lower, nothing will be higher.
Without an afraid, nothing will be brave.
Without a trickery, nothing will be honesty.

What do you think?
