It's ironic

how a slave knows freedom better than a free man.

How a dumb man knows more than a smart man

How a poor man is richer than a rich man

How a weak man is stronger than a strong man

How a fearful man is braver than a brave man

How a fool is more wise than a wise man

How a tainted man knows what's right more than a pure man

Life is indeed full of irony

Rather than guessing if the cup is half full or half empty
Why not work to make the cup overflow with water?
Is that not better than doing nothing?
For guessing will not lead you to a full cup
the cup will not fill itself
We should not be satisfied with just half efforts
But work to give our all
Despite the troubles and outcome
We can walk to the rice to fill the cup
Even if the river is miles away
Oh how sweet it is when you work hard and succeed
As the saying goes you can bring a horse to drink but you can not make it drink
Such as you can bring a cup to the water but you can't make the cup fill itself

The strange topic
Of how irony is more understandable than what is predicable
Irony is expected more than what is claimed to be expected
