Kiss. Umbrellas are open

Lao Tzu once walked in the rain without an umbrella and a raincoat and met his students coming under the big umbrella.
– Sir, why do you go in the rain without an umbrella? – Asked the student.
– When the it is raining – said Lao Tzu – you are to get wet.
Enlightened student, threw an umbrella and walked away, smiling in the rain.
– What a fool – Lao Tzu said, picking up an umbrella.
