A man was out walking when he came face to face with a tiger. In terror, he started to run away only to find that he was racing toward a precipice. Having no alternative, he climbed over the edge and, as luck would have it, caught hold of the root of a vine. Then he heard growling and, looking down, he saw another tiger below waiting for him to fall. His troubles were still not over. Two mice, one white and one black, started to gnaw
through the vine from which he hung. Just at that moment, he spotted a
wild strawberry growing out of the side of the cliff. With one hand he grabbed it and put it in his mouth. It was delicious! (attributed to Buddha)
