On the Crauhnice Principle

Interesting Observations about Life by Joy Osympelmin
From Chapter 12, "The Crauhnice Principle"

It has come to my attention recently that there is a thinking among the amused that involves doing quite unexpected or strange things in an attempt to spread amusement, as well as other equally unexpected goodness. The idea being that there is good in the thing itself, or the action, or the words, rather than in the way that it is presented. This is a principle which I like to refer to as the Crauhnice Principle. ‘Crauhnice’ simply being a word used to describe anything that is so strange, abnormal, insane—crazy, if you will—that it turns out to be nothing other than truly nice.

Now, crauhnice things, actions, words, events, people, etc. are wonderful things to behold when you find them. It is because there may be no greater way to discover beauty than when it is unexpected. So these crauhnice things, when found, tend to bring joy to those who gain by them. Thus, those who live by the Crauhnice Principle, meaning that they try to invent that which is crauhnice, try to spread their adventure to those around them. True, this can easily—and often does—lead to some confusion, but the crauhnice people tend to believe that in most cases this minor confusion is acceptable sacrifice for the times that produce that which is truly crauhnice.

I have personally observed crauhnice behavior to be an amusing and somewhat entertaining activity. So I must consider that the crauhnice people, who are indeed out there, may be on to something. However, those who wish to live crauhnice must fully implement it into their thinking for it to be effective. So, I did find that it was worth a try; but it did, for at least the short time I tried it, take up my thinking. This may have merely been because of my self-training in it, and may recede with time, but it was work. I suppose, however, that the more ways in which one applies crauhnice activities to their life that it will be much quicker to learn, and be overall more effective.
