View on the watchtower on island Texel.
Texel is a municipality and an island in the province of North Holland (situated north of Den Helder) in the Netherlands. It is the largest and most populated island of the West Frisian Islands in the Wadden Sea.
The moment I saw this (I had been walking on the beach for some hours), it reminded me immediately of the song "All Along The Watchtower", lyrics by Bob Dylan and performed by Jimi Hendrix. Enjoy ;-))
ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER
There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business men, they drink my wine
Plowman dig my earth
None were level on the mind
Nobody up at his word
Hey, hey
No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl
This mural is from East Vancouver where Hendrix (from Seattle) spent some time with his grandmother. He often came for visit and play on the streets in this neighbourhood. This 2007 mural was painted by artists Nelson 'Dedos' Garcia and Xochitl. Hendrix's Grandma Zenora Hendrix (also on the mural), who worked as a cook at a Vie’s chicken and steak house in Hogan’s Alley. Jimi Hendrix died at the age of 27. Senior Citizen sounds strange, but this year would be his 80th birthday (born 27. November, 1942). In Vancouver there is even a shrine to Hendrix.

"There must be some kind of way out of here,"
Said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion.
I can't get no relief."

RISE UP – ANDRA DAY
Shed the many coats of your forefathers
those whose knowledge passed down through the years
let dust consume those old and fragile manuscripts
listen, really listen to your fears
hearsay is our assumed reality
we act on words of others almost blindly
let's rely upon our instincts that run deeper
like a river flowing through us; speak out kindly
all our needs are met in perfect moments
don't be another witness passing by
lift up your consciousness; I am beside you
I am here for you; I hear you; feel your cry
I am not the sum of all that has befallen me
I will not allow myself to be that so defined
I can rise up high to float amongst the ether
and eradicate all those words that so malign
within you each a light shines ever brighter
yet words of others still snuff out the flame
I urge you now; stop listening to these voices
they're not yet so enlightened; they're not to blame
raise your thoughts to goodness all around you
there are miracles in everything you see
the caterpillar that becomes a lovely butterfly
transition sure; complete and positively
if we are to find peace amid the chaos
we have to metamorphasize ourselves
take this new day and spin good thoughts so golden all around
make a better world for all not just yourselves
yes, words are easy; I don't have all the answers
I often fail; I often doubt myself
but the first day of the rest of my life is in the here and now
and I will try to make my words and actions count
it only takes a random act of kindness
to make a stranger smile and feel complete
a tiny seed is planted for the future
and passed on to the next one he will meet
and so your one small act of goodness
is slowly spread throughout this world of ours
until the hate and wars are left behind us
and love and beauty grows like precious flowers.

"You're just like crosstown traffic
So hard to get through to you
Crosstown traffic
I don't need to run over you
Crosstown traffic
All you do is slow me down
And I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town"

In questo graffito il copricapo maschile e la colorazione con tonalità marine potrebbero essere ipotetiche simbologie della cultura locale e invece è il ritratto di Jimi Hendrix.
Come mai proprio a Essaouira? Perché è un luogo dalla lunga tradizione hippie.
La musica è uno dei più vivaci trait d'union tra queste diverse culture: negli anni Sessanta la città divenne uno dei luoghi preferiti dagli hippie di tutto il mondo, che si innamorarono dell'atmosfera, del clima e di alcune usanze tradizionali, in particolari quelle legate alla musica gnawa, tramandata dai discendente dagli schiavi neri subsahariani. Lo Gnawa – di cui qui ogni anno, a giugno, si celebra la rassegna più importante in assoluto - attirò qui una serie impressionante di artisti: Frank Zappa, Cat Stevens, Leonard Cohen, Bob Marley e sopratutto Jimi Hendrix, che arrivò ad Essaouira nel 1969 innamorandosene al punto tanto da dedicare una canzone, 'Castle Made of Sands', alle rovine del palazzo di un antico sultano che affioravano tra le dune di Diabat, un villaggio poco fuori città.
Questi suoni tradizionali, miscelatati con ritmi africani, maghrebini ed elettronici, oggi continuano ad attirare l'interesse di artisti di tutto il mondo, molti dei quali sono presenti nella line up del Moga Festival, rassegna di arti digitali e d'avanguardia. Ultimo realizzato nel settembre 2022 e nato nel 2016.

I could not resist playing with the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix's song, "Red House" for this image. Found in an alley in downtown Seattle.
Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is accord. Harmony.
Laini Taylor
An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind. Mahatma Gandhi
Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.
Albert Schweitzer
Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If there is righteousness in the heart, there will be beauty in the character. If there is beauty in the character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nations. When there is order in the nations, there will peace in the world. Confucius
Peace begins with a smile.
Mother Teresa
It is not enough to win a war; it is more important to organize the peace.
Aristotle
The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
Marianne Williamson
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
Jimi Hendrix
