PATHS IN SNOW

”In Finland you sometimes have to wade in snow in the winter.” //
”Paths will be formed in the snow, but sometimes you meet someone on the path.” //
”Usually I give way and get off the path.” //
”But really often the other person also leaves the path…” //
”…and goes around the place I just moved away from…” //
”…before returning to the path once more.” //
”It is no longer polite to give way after the other one had already done so. It would be better to just carry on on the path. Now we both have wet feet.”
