On Humor and “Sans” Comic
Perceptive Feelings — A Pathway to Prosperity
In a warm kitchen setting, a loving hand delicately raised a gingerbread man, its sweet aroma permeating the air. Marked with a distinct “p,” the confection hinted at the promise of planksip—a perceptive pathway to prosperity where intellect and indulgence harmonized (vis-à-vis alliteration).
As the whimsical scene slowly faded from memory, my thoughts meandered through the corridors of Plato’s teachings on knowledge and remembrance. Learning as a form of remembering sparked contemplation on whether the passage of time eroded the wealth of acquired wisdom.
Yet, instead of dwelling on the potential loss of knowledge, the narrator embraced sharing insights, extending a metaphorical hand to others. The gingerbread man, now more than a simple treat, became a symbol of shared experiences and intellectual indulgence—an embodiment of the sweet intersection of emotions and understanding.
With a spirit of generosity, I offer the reader the sweetness of feelings as a metaphorical treat, enriching the collective tapestry of understanding that anyone could savour.
In these musings, a profound quote from Eco echoed in my mind:
The comic is the perception of the opposite; humour is the feeling of it.
—Umberto Eco (1932-2016)
This insight seamlessly merged with the evolving story, adding depth. The gingerbread man, adorned with the letter “p,” stood as a confection and guiding symbol. It invited those willing to embark on the delightful journey toward prosperity through the lens of perceptive feelings.
As the short story unfolded, it became a captivating exploration of themes—perceptive living, the sweetness of understanding, and the nuanced humour embedded in life’s observed outcomes. The gingerbread man becomes something to Saviour via the richness of experience and reminds us of the consumptive nature of the sweet life.
