[09.10.16] Dongwan’s blog: 2009 (main page updated)

A man was walking along a road in the middle of the night when he suddenly slipped on a rock.
Not knowing if he might fall off a cliff below the rock, he was suddenly gripped with fear,
When he slipped, dramatically he caught hold of a branch.
All night long, in his fear which he could see no end to, he screamed,
“Help!”
But his cries for help turned into nothing more than echoes in the darkness. That night, there was no one to help him.
As death seemed to approach, his hands started to freeze
At the moment when it seemed like he was losing strength in his wrists and about to fall, somehow while he was hanging on he caught a glimpse of the rising sun.
He held on to the branch nervously as he carefully looked down below at the cliff.
At that instant, in a flurry he let go of the hand holding the branch.
The ground was only 2 meters below his feet.

Perhaps.
The worries and troubles of humans are perhaps no more than a cliff that is 2 meters deep.
There could be many people on the cliff, holding on to branches and tormented by nightmares all night long…
