SummaryLife is full of obstacles – there is no doubt about it. Deciphering why people have certain obstacles and how they can overcome such obstacles is often just as burdening as the obstacles themselves. It is evident everywhere that people are struggling with their obstacles. From books, to movies, to everyday interaction, people are constantly being challenged to overcome. Marie De France’s “Lanval,” the hard life of an underprivileged child, and a CBS sitcom all relate this idea, that life is full of obstacles.
