Conversing w/ Esu/Ellegba “somehow I have the feeling you’ve been conversing with Esu/Ellegba lately… the top hat might be a dead giveaway…” -[says my sis J.i.c.i.] Wikipedia says: Eshu was walking down a road one day, wearing a hat that was red on one side and black on the other. Sometime after he entered a village which the road went through, the villagers who had seen him began arguing about whether the stranger’s hat was black or red. The villagers on one side of the road had only been capable of seeing the black side, and the villagers on the other side had only been capable of seeing the red one. They soon came to blows over the disagreement which caused him to turn back and rebuke them, revealing to them how one’s perspective can be as correct as another person’s even when they appear to be diametrically opposed to each other. He then left them with a stern warning about how closed-mindedness can cause one to be made a fool. dapperanddandy: Modern Dandy (bklyn, ny) - © 2010 Sophia Wallace Model: Krys Freeman Neckwear: Kate Ross - Distinguished CRAVAT
