Alan Watts - Don't Take Life Too Seriously

[TheAvatarState]

I've listened to A LOT of Alan Watts talks on YouTube, but this one I discovered recently might be my favorite. It is absolute gold through and through, and I highly recommend a listen.

Chattering finch and water-fly
Are not merrier than I;
Here among the flowers I lie
Laughing everlastingly.
No: I may not tell the best;
Surely, friends, I might have guessed
Death was but the good King's jest,
It was hid so carefully.

(The Skeleton by G.K. Chesterton)
