being needed

every woman shares this same instinct and makes this same mistake of needing to be needed. the strong will of a woman's existence comes from being needed by people, parents, siblings, lover, friends, colleagues and children, it makes her feel her existence meaningful. she doesn't mind and won't be scared -- it actually makes her brave -- when she is needed. she feels like she can do anything, as long as the things she does aren't just for herself. it makes her feel useless  when her existence becomes unnecessary to others. it is strange but it happens. sometimes she even wants more to be needed than be loved.
