Shoemaker

Shoemaker:

There was once a shoemaker who worked very hard and was honest, and good.
His life was so simple, his family so loyal, he did all that he could.

One day in the winter,
when the weather was cold.
He took a trip through the woods.

His shoes were too tight,
though he loosened them with all his might.

A loud noise he heard as he tied his shoe strings,
un aware of the tree, falling down with the breeze.

The tree did fall, on top of this man,
who did not fair well, alone in the woods.

Trapped he did stay days on end,
until his family, him did find.

Isn't that the case with professionals? For instance, the health provider takes the least care of her body. Ironic that the shoes of a shoemaker were so ill fit and therefore caused his destruction.
