Amusement

“the feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh”

What the world needs now is…more silliness. Anything that promotes more laughter—without it being at the expense of someone else—is fair game. Probably, more than anything, we need to laugh at ourselves more. Here we are…all of us spiritual beings of perfection trying to figure out the rules of this earthly game called “life” while trapped inside these limited machines we call bodies…I mean really…we can’t even transport ourselves from here to Jupiter, which we could easily do in mere nanoseconds otherwise.

And that transporter they use in the “Star Trek” franchise? How clunky is that? Outside of this human experiment…I mean experience…all we need is the thought and we’re there…none of this dematerializing from one place to re-materialize someplace else. Although for those of us in the realm beyond three dimensions, it does give us a chuckle to watch how they do that. (who just said that?????)

Anyway, today’s MotD encourages us to bring more silliness, wittiness, irony, and absurdity into our earthly lives.

For your enjoyment…“The Ministry of Silly Walks”

How about you? Is amusement a core value for you?

BTW…here’s what it looked like to begin with …

About the 2024 Mandalas of the Day

Each day I will create and post a mandala inspired by one of 366 “value” words chosen randomly. The objective being to discover for myself which ones would best represent my core values…and by doing so, I hope it inspires you to determine your own.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
