Inadequacy

The feeling of inadequacy is one of the lowest feelings that plague our lives. It can deflate a man of his zest for life, without the zest for life a man has no reason to live in his own eyes. When his reflection in the mirror stares back at him, he can feel himself degrading before his own eyes. His reflection has no right whatsoever to claim manhood. His reflection is that of failure, as he turns to the ground he feels darkness overcoming him. Why must I be subjected to ills in this life? Why can't I be in total control over my body and life? These are questions that may never render an answer. This man must simply bring life on and seize what he has. He must not pity his condition, for pity will only stop him in his path. If he doesn't exert himself in seizing what is in his power to, he will never leave the abyss he is surrounded by. He may forget about his inadequacy and move into more powerful territory.
