Shock Therapy

So, why is that people are shocked when the incredible happens? Let's give some examples. Let's say a man goes from earning $25 K in one year to $49 K about 2 years later. That's a good example of a change in fortune. It's one reason why people would think it's an incredible feat. Here's another example. Let's say a man is diagnosed with testicular cancer and surgery is required. The tumor is removed and then the tumor is found to be benign. By the way, both examples are true stories. In this writing, both examples show that shocking events take place and people find it incredible. No matter what happens, people live to shock each other. What is defined as shocking though? You decide. The bottom line is G. Ripley has been through shock therapy. The first example in the paragraph is the true story of one man's income, plus the shock behind the vicissitude. The happiness of that man can be seen in his writings. Shock therapy is simply defined as therapy (or positive actions) that is meant to change one's lifestyle in exorbitant ways. In the words of Matthew McConaughey, "just keep living." Kudos to hollywood's own longhorn!
