Good monring, la_veroniqe Basho's best known haiku has been iterpreted as a kind
of koan, the frog discloseing the final meaning of reality:

Old pound,
frog jumps in-
plop.

that one brings me home.

that's what life is

must jump in

just like the frog

without much thought

just jump in

and see what happens

that is what we do in life

we are born
and like the frog

we just jumped into life

without even thinking about it

as soon as we were born

as babies

we opened our eyes

plop

we jumped into life

then we started to cry

plop

we were swimming into life

then we started to smile and giggle

plop

we were jumping into life

and now we are walking breathing talking playing

plop

we are doing life

just like the frog
