merging lines with light and shadow
the eye that is penetrating sees clearly,
the ear that is penetrating hears clearly,
the nose that is penetrating distinguishes odors,
the mouth that is penetrating distinguishes flavors,
the mind that is penetrating has understanding,
and the understanding that is penetrating has virtue. ~ CHUANG-TZU

a meditative journey 
Powerful thoughts here. I love the play with shadows you have done here.
Thank you, Joseph. Positive words are much needed today.
This is a season to spread as much positivity as we can.
Beautiful photograph. Beautiful tones, forms, and composition. And the words are infused with wisdom.
It is interesting to read words written so long ago that “are infused with wisdom. It is as if they are carried in currents of time and have yet to settle in the consciousness of man.
They are words for the ages. There’s enough of it to go around for anyone who will listen.
