Accidents

Yutang Lin

Situation and feelings abruptly change in a blink,
Beyond personal control but to face it squarely,
Reflecting on the conditions to recognize causal traces,
Dripping water would eventually go through rocks.

Comments:

Accidents appeared to be random events. However, upon careful examination and reflection traces of causal factors could often be found or recognized. Learn from past accidents lest the same pattern of misfortune would fall again.
