A Buddhist's Diary May 4th 2009


I give up on the daily diary idea. From now on I will just make entries on the day I commit them.
Yesterday we met many snakes on the road. My friend said that one, passing in front of us, looked like a pale, rippling ribbon fluttering across the way. This one got suspicious when we stopped to admire him.
I would not like to try and catch it alive and remove its fangs. I suspect either it or I would die in the process. This snake is a diamond back. It is about four feet long and has the black and white stripes at the end of the tail before the rattles begin.
