Disappointment, Regret

The card shows a man with five cups, three of which have spilt. He is cut off from his house by a raging river.

The spilt cups are past failures and lost opportunities. The man is so fixated on these that he doesn’t notice the two cups remaining. If he could stop dwelling on what has already gone downstream, and cannot be changed, he could focus on what is still possible and perhaps make it Home.
