Buddha told a parable in a sutra:
A man encountered a tiger in the wilderness. He fled, and the tiger chased him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself down over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him.
Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!
commentary：
Not to think about the past and the future, but to cherish one moment after another is real fortune.
佛陀在一部经中说了如下一则寓言：
一个人在荒野经过，碰到了一头老虎，于是他拼命逃跑，但那老虎却紧追不舍。他跑到一处悬崖之上，以两手攀着一根野藤，让全身悬在半空中摇荡。他抬头仰望，只见那头老虎向他怒吼，向下看去，又见远远的下方有另一头老虎张着血盆大口在等着他。这使他胆战心惊，颤抖不已，而他只有一条枯藤可以系攀。
就在此时，又有一只白鼠和一只黑鼠，正一点一点地啃蚀那条枯藤。但他忽见附近有粒鲜美的草莓，于是他以一手攀藤，以另一手去采草莓，他将它送入口中，尝了一下： 味道好美呀！
评注：
不思过去，不想将来，体验珍惜即刻，随缘即是福。
