I just needed to have a laugh and two books recently have listed my spirits and taken me beyond the state of the world, the suffering of those I know and love and the difficulties of life in general. Personally, we had such a good 2023, which kind of counter-balanced the shocking state of the world, but 2024! Well! We don’t know whether we’re coming or going.
This is why, when I picked up Guy Browning’s little book of my bookshelf, with its amusing chapters reflecting on the absurdities of the situations we get ourselves in in life, how we think is such odd ways and our subsequent actions, have made me laugh out loud at times and smile most of the time.
It is written in chapters of How to … but not in anyway the conventional suggestions for Life’s smaller challenges.
A perfect ‘pick up’ or mood enhancer, especially to pause my mind from racing just before going to sleep.
I highly recommend it!
