Let’s say in this scenario, that the human element represents life.  Consequently, you find yourself at the bottom of the cup without tea leaves to cushion the blows. Time and time again, you would crawl your way to the cup’s rim, while hanging on to dear life; only for your feet to let you down by not gaining traction, and once more, you are back where you started.

If only a tea bag would come your way to give you a spot of hope, but instead, you have the misfortune of boiling hot steeped tea poured on you. The question is, are you going to give up, or give yourself another fighting chance?  Bloody hell, you are a survivor and you have contemplated your mistakes and learnt from them, thereby, any small window of opportunity that opens, you are going to seize and escape inevitability.
