Carrying Your Own Thorns

Walking up the hills of Maharastra, I feel a prick in my right toe. Ouch. I can't seem to find the thorn, so I keep walking. In couple minutes, again, ouch. No thorn. A third time, it happened and this time, my toe was bleeding. Talk about some serious bad right toe karma!

It turns out there's a small but sharp thorn in my sandal.

Sometimes we suffer because we carry our own thorns.
