Bondsman

The master and slave analogy we discussed in class was a very interesting topic. The master is the one in control while the slave serves others to make it and survive. The master's focused on what's not present and immediate, he/she acts like a selfish child and has the gimme mindset. While the servant provides what the master wants and desires. The master's independent and the servant's dependent. In a series of unfortunate events, the master loses his fortune and servants. The master must become completely dependent on the world and the servant. In the meantime, the servant has already learned efficiently through his role and becomes active in life. He/she is engaging in the world and making things happen. The independence and dependence roles have switched.
