Jane Austin

"Seldom, very seldom. Does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised or mistaken."

About Me

My photo
-I like people, i like things but most of all i like boats because they go places. -Sagal means sun showers. Or summer rain as i like to think of it. "Do you know what a summer rain is? To start with, pure beauty striking the summer sky, awe filled respect absconding with your heart, a feeling of insignificance at the very heart of the sublime, so fragile and swollen with the majesty of things, trapped, ravished, amazed by the bounty of the world." - The Elegance of the Hedgehog (Muriel Barbery)

Wise word from Tina Fey

Everyone wants happiness. Nobody wants pain. But you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain

The joy's of laughter

"What monstrous absurdities and paradoxes have resisted whole batteries of serious arguments, and then crumbled swiftly into dust before the ringing death-knell of a laugh!"
-Agnes Repplier

Laughter is my shield.
Laughter is the pillow that soaks up my tears when i cry myself to sleep.
Laughter is my knight in shinning armor.
Laughter keeps me warm when I'm cold and alone.
Laughter disguises the tears in my eyes as tears of joy.
Laughter gives the appearance of keeping me sane...
But I laugh at the fact that I'm loosing my mind with each and everyday.

Everyone needs some sort of coping mechanism. Well not everyone I guess. The world is not as unstable as I. For example: Those people who function on a daily basis and are able to be content and satisfied with themselves and their insignificant existences... how do they manage?

It's inconceivable that not everyone has to wake up every morning and convince themselves to wake up and go on with their day... live their lives. That, for some reason it's barely a struggle, let alone a war between body and mind to get up out of bed and live alongside the rest of the world. To look a stranger in the eye and exchange looks, gestures and words because basic forms of human interaction are considered part of the norm.

Why live among people who have no value or use to you? Why tolerate people interloping, judging and analyzing your way of living? The delusional part of me believes that I may just be the one who is indeed "normal." I see life the way it's meant to be seen. I know we only live to die. I refuse to live my life in any sort of way that is expected of me.

Laughter is my shield.
Laughter is the pillow that soaks up my tears when i cry myself to sleep.
Laughter is my knight in shinning armor.
Laughter keeps me warm when I'm cold and alone.
Laughter disguises the tear in my eyes as tears of joy.
Laughter gives the appearance of keeping me sane...
But I laugh at the fact that I'm loosing my mind with each and everyday.

Despite it all I'd rather just laugh.
