The Sweetest Strawberry:
A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger.
He fled, the tiger after him.
Coming to a precipice,
he caught hold of the root of a wild vine
and swung himself over the edge.
The tiger sniffed at him from above.
Trembling, the man looked down to where,
far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him.
Only the vine sustained him.
Two mice, one white and one black,
little by little started to gnaw away the vine.
The man then saw a luscious strawberry near him.
Grasping the vine with one hand,
he plucked the strawberry with the other.
How sweet it tasted.
- Zen Koan

the rest is merely tenacity.

You can act to change and control your life;
and the procedure, the process is its own reward.
- Amelia Earhart
It is not part of a true culture to tame tigers,

Know that there is no single way that life is "supposed" to be.

pound pillows, scream, curse.
Then take a deep breath, and get over it.
