Sure. The character '天' (tian, meaning sky or heaven). In Chinese creation myths, heaven was an important part of the creation. The character's form might be related to the concept of the sky being above us. Another one is '水' (shui, meaning water). Water was also a crucial element in creation stories, and the character's shape gives an idea of flowing water, which was essential for life according to those stories.

The character '山' (shan, meaning mountain). Mountains are often seen as stable and ancient in Chinese culture. In creation stories, they were part of the landscape created. The shape of the character with its three peaks gives a sense of the physical appearance of mountains. Also, '火' (huo, meaning fire) is significant. Fire was a vital element in human development and in creation stories. The character's shape might represent the flickering of a flame.

Sure. One example could be a factory startup. The owner, in order to cut costs for maximum profit, hires a large number of unskilled workers at very low wages. They also don't invest in proper ventilation or safety equipment in the factory. This is a common scenario in some developing regions where regulations are not as strict. Another example is a tech startup that overworks its employees. They offer the promise of stock options in the future but in the present, demand 80 - hour workweeks with no overtime pay.

How about 'As the first drop of rain fell upon the barren land, the story of nature's creation was set in motion.' This line gives the idea that something as simple as a raindrop can be the starting point of a much larger process of nature coming into being. It also creates an image of a desolate starting point which is then going to be transformed by the power of nature.
