Helplessness is a strong emotion. It can destroy your whole life like a passive aggressive tumor in your system, raging within, destroying every ounce of fighting chance you may have. Or, there is a chance it makes you stronger beyond horizons you ever thought. While there is an equal chance this can go either way, how a person reacts to helplessness is purely a product of why you landed in shit in the first place. The cause may be a mind numbingly dumb superior, death of a loved one, or without much ado, when life shows you the middle finger at all fronts you thought would go right. The resemblance is uncanny. The realization of vulnerability never feels right. Superman hates kryptonite, your God hates atheists even though he may preach them to be his own sons and daughters, a CEO hates a good competition. Hatred is a mere by-product in this case. What really stands out is your own reaction to the situation. The inevitability of this situation is the end. Some prefer to live by their own terms and conditions and accept whatever the result simply because its an affordable loss and they might just not be dull enough to extract a lesson out of this. And then there are those who call it quits, get stuck in a limbo and take the stupid way out.
