Version Revisions and Laugh-gasms

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The best advice

I ever gave myself was to

"just do my best."

That it would be enough.

Not an invitation to slack off,

far from it: The best I can

under the circumstances. Then

not worry about it anymore.

Liberation of a kind.

An important kind.

Life is a garden, not a road.

We enter and exit

through the same gate.

Wandering, where we go

matters less than

what we notice. Kurt Vonnegut

I still carry these versions of myself. It’s a kind of reincarnation without death: all these different lives we get to live in this one body, as ourselves. Maggie Smith

In every heart,

there is a spark of

the firebird's magic –

the ability to transform

and rise from the ashes.

Susanna Kearsley

A tickle, a spark, a building delight,

Tension mounts as the joke takes flight.

Then suddenly - burst! A comedic release,

Endorphins rush, all worries cease.

This blissful reset, a humorous high,

Leaves us breathless, our spirits fly.

In laughter's warm afterglow we bask,

A joyful reprieve from life's heavy task.

Laughgasm:

Nature's merry design,

To clear our minds and realign.
