"Follow the path that has been prepared for you"

[BeatlePaul]

There is a tale in showing pictures.....

[unrepentant]

George, Paul, and Brian all look like they're either in jail, barracks, a college dorm, or the school infirmary. Institutional cinder block walls and bargain basement single beds....
Papa Bear says: "My, someone's been sleeping in my bed!"
Mama Bear says, "My, someone's been sleeping in MY bed!'
Baby Bear says: "My, Someone IS sleeping in MY bed"

And Mama Bear said, "D*mnit, I just changed the sheets."
OK. The Facts:

“Goldilocks and the Three Bears”


A children’s story. Goldilocks, a little girl with shiny blond hair, brashly enters the house of the Three Bears (Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear), eats the bears’ porridge, sits in their chairs, and sleeps in their beds. When the bears return, they retrace her steps, saying, “Someone’s been eating my porridge,” “Someone’s been sitting in my chair,” and “Someone’s been sleeping in my bed.” When they discover Goldilocks asleep in Baby Bear’s bed, Goldilocks awakes and flees in terror.

Quoted from:

And, Goldilocks? Well, Neil has blonde hair. After all:(allowing for the poetic license with gender)
"Goldilocks, a little girl with shiny blond hair"

According to the nursery rhyme---she cut and ran as soon as she was "found out".

What could all this mean?

What is meant by "follow the path that has been prepared for you?"

BP, I thought I'd find a connection but I haven't. Can you be a little more specific about where you are leading us?

Those photos really don't make a big statement, for my part.

To answer your question Perplexed, that's a jail cell in Manilla.

(things didn't go well, in too many ways to count)

they were never arrested, just brought there to protect them from angry fillipinos as i understand.

for those who don't know when the beatles were asked in late august 1966 about future tour plans they never said they wouldn't go on the road again, only that it'd be up to their manager. the fracas in the phillipines apparently did not traumatise them one bit, it just served to remind them of their place in the turbulent counter culture movement. there is no doubt in my mind that when it comes to touring, that they'd begin to debut new material and assert their new identity as musical creators in 1967 and beyond. paul's death and the replacement madness took care of all that didn't it.

Apollo, we have followed the path. We have been on the yelow brick road for YEARS my good man. What is the next step? The flowers, the fence, the scarecrow?

Or, is it, at last, finally time to go to OZ and see the Wizard himself?

What's so significant about the garden?
