Buddhism teaches us that life a sea of suffering (Samsara). Craving is the root cause of all sufferings. We should free ourselves from worldly cravings. But of course, it is easier said then done!
It is inevitable that we will encounter countless sufferings in life.
When you are down, remember to pause and take a look at the figurines below, and look at the positive side - "Don't worry, be happy".
In Chinese language, risk is 危机- it literally means risk (危险)and opportunity(机会) i.e. in every risky situation, there lies some opportunity!
