If you watch the people around you closely you will find that we are much like the people you find depicted in fiction. In books, TV, and Movies it is known that every bad guy must have a weakness of some kind that invariably results in his defeat or demise. Our dear Dr. Evil’s weakness is his need for the dramatic, to destroy his nemesis in just the right manner. We also realize that not only the bad, but the good must have a weakness of some kind, all heroes must have their form of kryptonite. What some might not realize is that one does not need to be hero or villan to have a weakness, everyone has something that makes them feel weak, something out of their control they feel holds them from achievement. I worry because, I feel that this is my weakness, that I no longer will be able to overcome this, no matter what the circumstance when I am approached by the kryptonite their is no way to overcome it rather than to keep my distance. In superman’s entire life his was never able to overcome this weakness of his, he just had to learn how to deal with this fact of his life. This meant coping with the his fate that one day his kryptonite will overcome him and there will be nothing that he could do about it.
What I am trying to say here is there is no pill for whatever weakness you have, we all must learn to cope and adapt to the changes in our lives that we just cannot overcome. I know what you are saying people who are paralized overcome their paralysis and live a normal life. This is just an explanation of semantics, they did not overcome, but supplemented their disability with a new ability. They simply turned their sails, taking them a different route with different wind and currents that with some luck they could possibly be taken to their intended destination, but maybe just maybe if the winds are right and you follow the current you may just end up somewhere that you had no clue that you would have ever ended up.
