Sweetest Quotes

Please enjoy these Quotes about Sweetest and Friendship from my collection of Friendship quotes.

The Sweetest Strawberry:
A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger.
He fled, the tiger after him.
Coming to a precipice,
he caught hold of the root of a wild vine
and swung himself 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 then saw a luscious strawberry near him.
Grasping the vine with one hand,
he plucked the strawberry with the other.
How sweet it tasted.
- Zen Koan

- Khalil Gibran

I take every opportunity to articulate to others
the ways that they have blessed and influenced me.

to thank teachers who have influenced me.
I encourage everyone to seize opportunities
to tell people who have made a gift of knowledge or influence.

I am with you still - I do not sleep.

Do not think of me as gone -
I am with you still in each new dawn.

the fruit will be all the sweeter for this touch of holiness.
