This is one reason it is difficult to have good give and take in the fallen world. We also have fallen nature which often dominates our original nature. Of course, our original nature expresses itself occasionally, but our fallen nature is stronger and usually dominates. This also causes difficulties in our relationships with others. Because we are fallen we often have the wrong view of life and there are many individual lifestyles.
Most people have an egocentric view of life and thus want to be totally independent.
Independence is not bad. Man cannot live alone, we are interdependent. Man often wants to be independent for selfish reasons. In certain situations man should be independent, but often man wants to be dependent when he should be independent and independent when he should be dependent. Fallen people are often physically mature, but spiritually like little children.
