《 衲履足跡 》 談把握因緣 Taking Opportunities
After installing an appliance, you have to know how to use it before it has value, and look after it to make it useful.
People also have to apply their talents. If you are over-protective of your health and safety, you will never do anything, and gradually lose your ability to move.
物品製作完成後，要得到使用才有價值，也要愛惜才能發揮功能。人也要發揮良能，若是過於愛惜身體而凡事捨不得動手、動腳，久而久之手腳功能也會退化。
