Interdependence Rough Draft,
Interdependence means to me that whoever we are or whatever we do, we all in some way rely on each other. In other words, I don’t think anyone can do every little thing by their selves. Anyone can be interdependent, but those who don’t act or think interpedently grow to be good individual producers, lonely, and at the same time lacking the ability or chance of being a good team player or leader, which is really what interdependence is all about, being and acting in unison.
As I see it, we live in a chain, we act as the humans in the world that plant the seeds, animals feed on the plants we’ve grown, and we feed on the animals, and so on. The chain continues somewhat like a circle and a circle never ends. Interdependence seems never ending. We practically depend on one another daily, whether it is at home or in school. People who make the things they want with their own hands are rare these days. It’s common to see people like us, who get different things from different people.
In our Media class, there’s a lot of interdependence going on all the time. When we had our first Photoshop project it was assigned to us for individual work. As we worked hard that day, interdependence was in the room. It was the first actual time most of us had learned how to use Photoshop, my classmates and I all helped each other on the simple things our teacher taught us how to do. When we make our videos for this class, we depend on each other again to do their part since we are all going to have the same grade. It may be acting, editing, or being the camera person in the video, we depend a lot on each other.
We all have many experiences of interdependence, but my fondest memory of mine is when my family gets ready for a party, birthday, or holiday. Since Christmas is coming up, our family always throws a big party at our auntie’s house. Each family member brings a hot dish to share. At home, my brother, dad, mom, and I all work together to prepare for the food. I help my mom bake while my brother helps my dad cook outside. We arrive early to the party to help my aunty setup. We put all the presents under the Christmas tree, clean up a bit, and lay out the food on the table. We all helped each other out, since we knew one person couldn’t handle this big job for their self.
Interdependence is indeed a big word, but I learned a lot of it with this essay. Even doing this essay included some interdependence; I depended on Google to help give a quick definition. Anyways, I also learned that interdependence is an effective way to get things done. Working by yourself won’t get you very far than when you work together.
