How sweet it tasted!

A Zen-Buddhist story:

A man walking across a field encounters a tiger. He fled, the tiger chasing after him. Coming to a cliff, he caught hold of a wild vine and swung himself over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above.Terrified, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger had come, waiting to eat him. Two mice, one white and one black, little by little began to gnaw away at the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine in one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!

Today: packing, going to the food store with Berith, cooking, talking to Barbro on the phone, blipping in Espoon keskuspuisto. Thank you Berith for your kindness, support and help! Also thank you Barbro for clearing my thoughts!

Tomorrow: moving to my new home.

In this shot there are blueberries. Here is a blueberry flower photographed earlier.
