Irony

I love irony. It’s one of Life’s more gorgeous embellishments. Like a shot of tequila or a dash of hot green chutney, it enlivens existence and allows for humourous, humbling, ponderous double-takes, sometimes all at once.
In modern pop culture, Alanis Morissette’s Ironic captures the sardonic incongruity (I’m just letting myself go) of fate’s evil scheming.
If you choose to live a life less ordinary then I would always say, live a life of irony. Like me right now: I gave up being a rich man in a poor country to be a poor man in a rich country.
