Today's musings were about Judgment and Vulnerabilities. Here's a little excerpt:

Vulnerabilities - 漏洞 - Lòudòng
Warriors find adversity everywhere,
and see adversaries in every man-
Searching for the vulnerabilities of enemies,
while training to eliminate their own-
the path of war is defined by struggle.
The sage, however, has no weak point.

AND

Judgment - 判斷 - Pànduàn

A case of mistaken identity
dooms many innocent men to death-
Flimsy accusations, given weight
from accumulated influence
and the position of high office.
A system of justice, setup
to determine right and wrong
not by the facts of the case,
but by proximity to wealth.
Arbitrary proceedings conclude upon a gavel strike,
the end of a life,
decided.
