According to Buddha
In most of our human relationships, we spend much of our time reassuring one another that our costumes of identity are on straight.
we can chase down all our enemies
bring them to their knees
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can’t bomb it into peace
whoa we me even find a solution
to hunger and disease
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can’t bomb it into peace

Funny! 🙂
Nice observation of the zipper. I like both the quote from Buddha and, what I am guessing are your sentiments afterwards. It doesn’t seem the human race will ever learn that lesson.

Amazing quote and poem. The refrain is so powerful and obvious and yet somehow for millennia we seem not to understand.

Very amazing to read but also very truthful though.

Hedy, this is excellent storytelling in words and images combined. A stunning triptych that tells so much. Amazing creative work. – many smiles to you
I appreciate your comments Markus ☺️🤓 smiles back over the pond 💫
“Costumes of identity”. That’s a good one. So many people have theirs zipped up so tight they can’t breathe or see…
Bonne année Hedy. I’ve probably said it many times before, but heck, we have all of January for good wishes right? 😉
