O, simplemente, a sentir una insatisfacción permanente, una peculiar impotencia en relación al curso de nuestra vida.

En nuestra infancia está la clave para entender por qué somos como somos, qué nos hace pensar, sentir y actuar de determinada manera y no de otra. Descubrirla nos atrae, pero también nos asusta.
