from a place of weakness some are able to rise to a place of strength, especially after experiencing traumatic events; others, however, remain stuck in place replaying the dynamics of their trauma in unfulfilling relationships in an effort to take ownership of the pain and perhaps eventually master it--by eroticizing their trauma they now feel in control of it and thus feel they have overcome it-- they are in fact keeping the pain of their trauma alive and well ...

And never quite able to understand why a life full of promise is failing
