falling

A wonderful encouragement may be found in the Japanese (?) saying, "Fall down seven times, get up eight."

But in what way does it respond to the American TV advertiser who addresses the aging individual: "I've fallen and I can't get up"?

Such -- the latter -- is the world of my mind lately.

  1. I'm finding horizontal more comfortable than any vertical variation. So if I've fallen down I wonder, can I get comfortable here? will I be stepped on?
