>>I told him that it was just unfair, that you can try so hard to help people, want to help people, but you can still inadvertently add misery to the universe. That's a very solid statement. You go out for a walk one day and see an old retaining wall with a huge crack in it. You think, "wow, that is a really nice old wall and it would be a shame to see it crumble so I should patch that crack." You go out and buy the supplies to properly fill the seam and do so. The next day there is a massive rain and you hear on the news that the wall that you patched crumbled, fell over and killed a 15 old ladies, 8 cats, 5 horkers, 2 snails and one rabbi. Come to find out that that wall has stood for thousands of years and that crack had formed naturally to relieve the pressure of rain that falls on the dirt behind it. Good intentions can lead to bad outcomes but in the end, a rabbi dies. A modified version of the little dutch boy and the dike.
