Every once in a while I find myself in a situation no matter what I do, how much I try, I feel I am stuck at the same point, not making any progress. I feel incapacitated, depressed and totally helpless. I find myself trying and trying harder. I get frustrated. And then, poof! nothing.. feel nothing..
Whenever I feel like this, it reminds of Keanu Reeves's speech in "the replacements". When asked to talk about their fears, KR says he is afraid of quicksand. His explanation is more or less like what I feel. He says, he is afraid of things going smooth, one bump and everything just sinks.
In flying, if the plane stalls, spins etc., there is a procedure to recover it. The last rule is if nothing works, just let it go, and plane might fly on itself. I guess its the same with feeling dejected and helpless. If everything you tried fails, let life take its own course. Just relax and enjoy the ride!
