Transcendentalists strongly believed in being self-reliant and independent. Self reliance encouraged people to make their own decisions and take responsibility for the path they choose to take. It encourages people to rely on themselves and not have to go with others opinions or thoughts. This song "Independent Woman" shows Self-Reliance through pop culture. " Tell me how you feel about this. I worked hard and sacrificed to get what I get.... All the women who are independent, throw your hands up". Destiny's Child choose these lyrics to declare the fact that they don't need a man to take care of them owing to the fact that they are self reliant. "Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles." -Ralph Waldo Emerson This quote is a great example for relating to this transcendentalism tenant because Emerson is telling us that the world around you will be so much better and you will find more happiness and peace if you learn how to become dependable on yourself instead of relying on other people.
