Trauma is an inevitable aspect of life. You or anyone you care about has almost certainly been through trauma, whether it was "big-T" trauma like mental, physical, or sexual assault, or "little-t" trauma like divorce, loss of employment, terrible childhood events, or any scenario where you seemed worthless, frightened, or helpless. But we can recover. It doesn't have to be a lifelong process. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a form of psychotherapy that has been shown to help individuals recover from trauma and enhance their quality of life.

People who accomplish great feats owe their successes not to luck, but to the sheer ability to control their desires and to keep themselves from being complacent with what they currently have. Successes and failures should not be grounded on fortune or the lack thereof because they are more tied to how we live through self-discipline. Most people do not realize it, but they possess a lack of self-discipline in the things they strive for.

As humans, we have continued to rely on so many external factors for peace and fulfillment, in a time of increasing stress, conflicts, and rapidly failing mental health. Even though these things seem to be temporary, we keep holding on to them as long as they put us at ease at the moment. Things like exotic parks and other luxurious facilities and establishments.
