Does the World Need Another Blog?

In this day and age, we can use some stories and a little mirth. The world seems to have fallen off its rocker lately. So from time to time, I plan to give you a few jokes, a pun or two, a humorous tale, and who knows, there may just be a good belly laugh popping out from under your covers. Sometimes I will take a lop-sided look at life from my corner of the galaxy and try to put one and one together and make it add up to three, maybe four. And don’t tell me it can’t be done. Anything is possible with higher math and a little imagination.

At other times, you will find stories posted here simply to give the reader some enjoyment. Some will be sad and some mysterious and some explore the things that go bump in the night. Occasionally I may throw in a poem as an extra-special treat. And maybe there will be a little enlightenment along the way.

The one thing I do promise. The posts here won’t appear because I have some steam to blow off. They will be for the reader’s entertainment and delight. If I miss that mark, it won’t be because I didn’t try. After all, we bards love to dance with words and what better way to dance than to tell a tale and hope it waltzes its way into the heart.

The dharma of the jester
I live by the dharma of laughter
on the road of the cosmic joke
the Bodhisattva Comedians walk
compassionately with their audience
in stitches, awakened on the way of the gag
and the pun I follow, an old April fool
who’s not heard a yuk he didn’t take to
‘less it’s a pratfall hurts somebody.
There’s no fun in that!

One final thing, thank you for joining me on this ride. Enjoy. And ever walk toward your best self.
