(double) BanksyWhen you find the way
others will find you.
Passing by on the road
they will be drawn to your door.
The way that cannot be heard
will be echoed in your voice.
The way that cannot be seen
will be reflected in your eyes.

Lao tells it, doesn't he? That's beautiful.
Thanks, Coffee.
Aww, jeez! I just took a closer look at the pictures. Must confess, I don't get the first one. But the second, that's what it's really all about, isn't it? War, I mean. I'm reminded of that scene early in Kubrick's "2001..." where the anthropoids(or whatever you call'em)are fighting with a leg-bone over possession of the water hole. That's still where we are on that front, seems to me.
And there's enough water, it makes no sense...
decker: It's ironic, isn't it, the 1st picture, "being against the War" that is......don't want to give it away.....
And yes, not much has changed in the world of man/woman. Take more than you give seems a bit backwards to me too.
Thanks for stopping by!
Lao had it goin on, fo shizzle, but I think one could also claim:
When you find the way
others will avoid you
Lao Tzu & Banksy ! A Good Juxtaposition.
coffee, you always inspire me to go read lao tzu again. It's been nearly 30 years since I held a copy of the tao te ching. Hope things are going well in Carolina for you. I bet it's nice and warm there. Lucky you!
I agree with Robin (and Tony)

Good Lao moments Coffee which you know when best to supply.
I like the Lao Tzu a lot.
Lovely
Alas, but that Kurt seems as accurate as Lao Tzu in his observation. At the least it's what most folk fear.
Happy Travels
Oh! That is an aerosol can in the top pic! It'd probably be even funnier if I knew the picture.
Must Google further...
:-)
Lead by example.

nick: Hi there.
mb: Ain't it the truth though! ; (
decker: With your keen eye I never would have suspected you missed that.
mary: Yep.....
Coffee, I saw it. My mind wouldn't let me accept that's what it was...'til I looked up Banksy. Now I can even tell you what brand it is!
Maybe I was having what Dali called "negative hallucination." Said he was walking down the street one day, carrying a 12 ft. loaf of bread on his shoulder, accidentally dropped it behind him, and when he turned around to pick it up, it was gone. He never found it.
decker: I figured it was something you were familiar with.
I love the Dali story! Thanks for that one!
