曇っていたのに、ふと見ると大きな真っ赤な太陽が昇ってきました。
今日はとても暑い一日でした。
最高気温はなんと30.3℃。
昨日のダブル・ディライトがこんなに真っ赤な色になりました。

LIVE LIKE THE FLOWERS
Teacher, what should I do to not get upset?
Some people talk too much, others are ignorant.
Some are indifferent.
I hate those who are liars and I suffer with those who slander.
- Well, live like flowers! The teacher warned.
- And how is it to live like flowers?
The disciple asked. - Pay attention to those flowers - continued the teacher, pointing to some lilies that grew in the garden.
They are born in manure, however they are pure and perfumed.
They extract from the malodorous fertilizer everything that is useful and healthy, but they do not allow the sourness of the soil to stain the freshness of their petals.
It is fair to be anguished by one's own faults, but it is not wise to allow the vices of others to make you uncomfortable.
The defects of them are theirs and not yours.
And if they are not yours, there is no reason to bother.
Exercise then, the virtue of rejecting all the evil that comes from outside.
This, is living like flowers.
