Marc Levy. Between heaven and earth (№ 391893)

Sometimes we are powerless to fate, desires or impulses, and it is painful, often unbearable. The feeling will haunt you your whole life, sometimes forgetting and sometimes turning into an obsession. The art of living depends on our ability to overcome our own helplessness. It's hard because impotence often leads to fear. It negates our strength, intelligence, common sense and opens the way of weakness.
