Adaptation
In star wars, there was not just mad sci fi and guy who used to breath funny. There were two philosophies going against each other. One of which was the sith philosophy. There was this particular part I was very interested in. It was called Improvement through Conflict.
It said "Without strife, your victory has no meaning. Without strife, you do not advance. Without strife, there is only stagnation." - Uthar Wynn
The Sith philosophy pointed out that it was conflict that lead to the improvement of both individuals and civilizations, because it encouraged people to better themselves. Conflict forced change, growth, adaptation, and evolution. Conflict ensured that the strongest survived. This could be seen throughout the galaxy, as stronger organisms flourished and weaker ones died off. The Sith believed that this same philosophy, one not invented by them but used by the universe itself, was the path towards true perfection. Without conflict there would be only stagnation. They saw the teachings of the Jedi as a crux that prevented change and improvement.
The Sith believed that any opportunity, even an unsure one, must be snatched. They believed that beings only deserved what they were strong enough to take and protect, and that those too weak to stand against the strong deserved their fate. The way of the Sith was for the pupil to outshine the master and the stronger Sith to take the lead, often through the destruction of one former partner. Some, but not all, Sith believed that morality was but an obstacle to overcome, because it got in the way of a Sith's ability to recognize and grasp opportunities.
If you are still wondering why I wrote all that ?? Then a quick translation. You were faced with a conflict. You survived unlike your friends. That fact alone has made you stronger. Better. Now you do realize you do not need to depend on any other organism to survive. Keep it up.
