Lighting the fire in June

IMG_6950

So today we lit our open fire today at home and it’s the 3rd June.

Ok so weather can be a little unpredictable in the UK, however, 11C in June is not normal.

That’s the thing, things rarely are normal, yet we plan and live our lives expecting normal.Normal is a product of the mass system, that loves average. Creating or expecting average, vanilla or normal is dull.

Plan and live for the unexpected, it’s more fulfilling.

Who’s the fool?

Foolishness is all a question of opinion and perspective. What seems silly to one set of people, may well seem quite OK with another group.

The fact is intelligence or what is normal or mad, is an arbitrary measure. Who is to say what is foolish or which person is a fool?

Sanity, normality, intelligence, all these things that societies use to ensure compliance and mass conformity are just a question of which side of the fence you sit on.

The fool is perhaps the person who never questions this and accepts the rules of what defines the fool.

Maybe try foolish sometimes and see what the world looks like from the other end of the telescope.
