Athens Street Shots, Part II

[Airy]

Lovely shot Jakov.

However the Niemöller quote is out of scope here. And nobody is discriminiating anybody. Look up a dictionary for discrimination vs. criticism. There may be a fine line, but there is a line all the same. And to quote David Hartman in reverse: I love it when somebody I like quits smoking (but if they keep on, I'm still with them).

Piece and love, bro.

Now, thanks again Ron for providing us with thought-provoking social photography, and nice to look at in addition. Great shot. More of that please.

Jacov, please accept my apologies, but I am very sensitive to smoke.

I love this poem:

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.


Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the Catholics, and I did not speak out-
Because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

[David H. Hartman]

Airy,

I had a friend that smoked. He didn't smoke in his own car when I rode with him. Out side he checked the wind direction before lighting up. He was more bother by smokers after he quit than I.

"Sitting is the new smoking."

The sooner one quites smoking the better their long term health out look will be.
