Perhaps you too were once faced
with an intractable problem, one
of such magnitude, significance,
that it may have changed, altered
your entire way of life, of living -
 conceivably you may even wished
planned, counted on it to become
a fulfillment of your fervent dream
were it not for an impenetrable wall
of formidable, relentless, stubborn,
hopeless factors deterring your every
move, obstructing every option open
to you, penalizing that which you so
carefully crafted, in your social, your
family related, your economic life to
such a degree that after long thoughts
and evaluations you concluded that
the problem was an insolvable one,
thus deciding to get on with your life.
