"Inspired by a favorite book, The Prophet: “In laughter, find your sorrows, and in sorrows, find your laughter.”"

Great quote. I like Gibran, too.

With so much disappointment in life, we might as well harvest some laughter out of it.

Thanks for reading, Carlo. That book has been in the background of my life since I was about 15. And we all know that was a while ago.

Love it. I'll have to play around with it a bit.

Playing with words is one of my favorite games!

I remember all those little skating lessons as a kid...scary enough to attempt even a single of those.

I'm reminded of one: Say what you mean and mean what you say.

Or a slight restatement of the Golden Rule: Do unto others what you'd have others do to you.

Thanks for the reminder, Maryan!

Wordplay done well is a delight.

As a figure skating fan, you had me at triple lutz. Your articles are always so helpful and informative. I was not familiar with the term for this mirroring writing technique. Gracias.
