This Complex World of Ours

"Follies and Inconsistencies do divert me I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can", wrote my favorite author Jane Austen. The world we live in often reminds me of that phrase: follies and inconsistencies. Very quickly this is not a laughing matter - unfairness, exploitation, unequal distribution in our inequitable world are not just to be laughed off. It makes one mad, frustrated, and motivated to do something, as it should. But laughing at them can help one find the strength to address them.
