Seeing the Sky

“I who lie on my back do not see the sky, and you are lying on your belly.” (Oji)

In essence, the proverb suggests that I have the vantage point of seeing the sky, but I do not, so therefore there’s no way that you can see it from your position.

If a person has all the privilege and opportunity and still cannot achieve their goals, can someone who has nothing have a chance?
