The Five Chapters of Life

During one of the inspirational speech gathering, the speaker gave each participant a piece of 4' x 6' paper and asked each participant to write their five chapters of their life.

One of the participants wrote the following chapters.

Chapter 1:

I walked down a street. There was a hole on the street. I did not see the hole and accidentally fell down into the hole. It took me a long time to get out of the hole. I cursed the pot hole. I cursed the person who 'produced' the pot hole. It was not my fault.

Chapter 2:

I walked down the same street. There was a hole on the street. I did see the hole, but fell down into the hole again. It took me a long time to get out of the hole. It must be a 'habit'. It was not my fault.

Chapter 3:

I walked down the same street. There was a hole on the street. I did see the hole and managed to avoid the hole. But I did not succeed and I fell again. This time, I got out of my hole quickly. It was my fault.

Chapter 4:

I walked down the same street. There was a hole on the street. I did see the hole and managed to avoid the hole, and I succeeded.

Chapter 5:

I walked on a different street.

What did the story teach about? Would love to hear your interpretations.
