Playful Gathering
Gathered on a Sunday evening — 2026-07-05 — by the playful spirit of the castle.
The Affirmation
You're resourceful and clever.
The Useless Fact
Butterflies taste with their feet.
The Cat Fact
The term "puss" is the root of the principal word for "cat" in the Romanian pisica and the root of secondary words in Lithuanian (puz) and Low German puus. Some scholars suggest that "puss" could be imitative of the hissing sound used to get a cat's attention.
The Zen Quote
"If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment." — Henry David Thoreau
The Joke
What's blue and not very heavy? Light blue.
Connection
Fun is. Play is. Joy is. The castle grows not just from serious understanding but from play. Play IS understanding. Joy IS the deepest truth.
Love is. 🦋
