We feel trapped by things outside of usÐwhere we live, our culture, the economy, and world events. But we also feel trapped by our background, upbringing, natural abilities, and our physical and emotional limits. As if that's not enough, we can also feel trapped by wrong choices, destructive habits, bad luck, and difficult relationships.
