Good snowflakes,

Don't fall anywhere else!

The cherry blossoms of Yangming Mountain, my favorite of the three cherry blossom trees opposite "Want to Open The Little Steamed Bun". The three cherry blossom trees are all several feet tall, and the flowers are full of red and burning eyes.

Every time I stood in front of the three cherry blossom trees, I couldn't help but look away and close my eyes. Sometimes I buy a small bag of steamed buns and sit on the ground, eating various flavors of steamed buns, yam, pumpkin, taro, brown sugar, green tea... It wasn't until the small steamed buns were eaten that they reluctantly said goodbye to the tree.

Those three cherry blossom trees may not be the most beautiful in Yangmingshan, but the friends who have the longest friendship with me belong to the friends who "if life is only as they first see".

In the third grade of elementary school, I went to Taipei for the first time, and my cousin took me to walk up Yangming Mountain from Pingpingli to see the cherry blossoms along the way. It was the first time I saw cherry blossoms in my life, and I was touched by the beauty of cherry blossoms.

When I walked to the three cherry blossom trees, I was moved to tears, and it was hard to imagine that there were such beautiful cherry blossom trees in the world. Later, I lived in Taipei, and I would go there every year before the flower season to see the flowers, as if there was a silent agreement. From the first encounter, in a hurry, fifty years have passed.

This year, I stopped at the residence for a long time, and when I came back, I immediately went to visit. It was only early February, and the cherry blossoms thanked and spat out new shoots. I stood on the ground opposite, stunned.

The owner of the small steamed bun said that this year, the three cherry blossom trees bloomed the earliest, and they bloomed in the first few days of the New Year, which no one expected! After the New Year, it rained continuously, and all the flowers fell out of the week! In this world, the weather has become too terrible.

The cherry blossoms bloom every year, but our lives are very different every year!

I bought a bamboo shoot bun and ate it under the tree, and saw that the cherry blossom tree was full of green sprouts, and although the red and green were different, the beauty was the same. We cling to the annual flower season, but strive to open the cherry blossom tree, every season is also beautiful, you love its flowers, you have to love its buds, and even love every dead branch.

You love the tree, and you must love the mountain behind the tree, and the rain and the flowing wind of the empty mountain. "The Arhat does not stay in the mulberry, so as not to be merciful to the mulberry tree." You are not an arhat, you still have some attachments, you still have a trace of affection, and you are still looking forward to next year's flowering period.

When I came back, I walked past the acacia that was still in full bloom, and met the huge magnolia tree on the side of the road, with no turbidity in body and mind, and the sound of the landscape and water, the world was originally as beautiful.

Pang Yunju became enlightened, bid farewell to his master Yaoshan Zen Master, walked to the gate of the Zen Temple, suddenly saw the sky full of snow, and sighed: "Good snowflakes, do not fall elsewhere!"

Every piece of snow in life is beautiful, it falls on our hearts, there is no attachment to it, there is no need to separate, there is no superiority.

Every snow falls, both inevitably and accidentally.

The happiness of every flower is accidental and inevitable.

The causes of every life, although unpredictable, have a definite flow.

Touching the eye, it all comes true.

Good cherry blossom slices, do not fall elsewhere!
