Laughing at the darkness...

A good policy to live by.

Laughing at the darkness puts you more at ease no matter which side of the coin you’re on. If you’re more light than dark then laughing at it makes you stronger because you’re filling the darkness with light. If you’re more dark than light it makes you stronger because you’re confident that the darkness can’t harm you. Either way it works out.

I try and laugh at a lot of things now. I didn’t used to and I still don’t do it enough. But I find humor in a lot more of the universe than I have in the past.

( Laughter, orgone generators, singing gardens... )

Yay for fireplaces!!!

The power went out about an hour ago so we lit a fire and a bunch of candles and I roasted stale marshmallow peeps.

The trick is to carmelize the outside but not burn it. ;-)

Edit: The power came back on a little while ago. Right about the time I started meditating using the candle lantern. Go figure. :-/

I so want to set up to be off the grid. I'll happily add panels to every inch of roof space and pack the crawl space with batteries. Anything to not be dependent on the grid's reliability.
