Misfortune
作事不和同
臨危更主凶
佳人生苦根
閑慮両三重
In English
- In your work, others do not pull together
- facing danger, matters turn worse
- a dear one grows roots of hardship
- and idle worries pile two or three deep
- Meaning

- What to do today
- On something you are doing with others, check once what the other person has in mind.
- A word from the capybara
- On days of overthinking, munching grass is a good distraction.
