eat watermelon

The Zen master rested with his disciples. He took out a watermelon, cut it in half, and ate half of it with the disciple. When eating watermelon, the disciple asked: "Master, since everything you do has a certain meaning, do you share this watermelon with me is also teaching me what?" The Zen master did not say a word, continue to lick watermelon. The disciple continued: "Your silence must be a hidden problem - I will be happy when I eat watermelon. Is it in the watermelon or on my tongue?" The Zen master still said nothing. The disciple continued to be excited and said: "Since everything in life is meaningful, I think I already know the answer to that question: that happiness exists among us. Without watermelon, there is no carrier of happiness, no tongue... ""enough"! The Zen master interrupted him and said, "The real fools are those who think they are very intelligent and try to spend all their time explaining everything. The watermelon is delicious, this is enough, don't bother me to eat watermelon,"
