So, you have a sense of humor, but do you have a sense of irony? A sense of humor is an ability to appreciate and laugh at playfulness, whimsy, lightheartedness, and wit. When we have a sense of humor, we see the fun in life in a lighthearted, easy manner. Humor allows us to laugh and feel good. A sense of irony is similar, but different. What is irony? Humor is obvious; irony isn't. Irony requires seeing beyond the obvious, beyond the appearance. Irony is what we call life's little jokes that are played on us. But only those with a sense of irony see them. Sometimes, we say things we don't mean, to express what we do mean. Sometimes we use irony to dramatize an event, or for other unknown reasons. THE IRONY EFFECT is a fast, fun and interesting read. Open the book and start reading, to find out if you have a sense of irony. Your sense of humor will thank you for it. And you may even find out where irony is hiding in your life.
