I saw two boys throwing stings at a cherry tree in our yard and got mad at them. Before telling them to stop, I realized that they did it because they were so facinated by the pink petals falling down on them, slowly like snow. They did not have a single thought about doing any damage. So I smiled, and thought that they were a good reminder for me to think twice before judging anyone, as well as a reminder that ones childhood is brief. That moment below the tree might be a sweet memory for them one day, unlike one of the mad, grown-up neighbour ;-)
