Fire = friend

Though I'm attracted in theory to the idea of sitting in a room and enjoying a quiet evening of reading and contemplative thought, in reality there's always something more "important" I should be doing instead...

...so why is it that when you add a fire I'm happy to sit, read, listen to music, and generally chillax for hours on end?

The fire creates a primal sense of safety and comfort, as well as the warmth. That natural light, flowing, flickering & pulsing is actually more calming than the constant wattage of those energy-saving fluorescent bulbs beneath the lampshades. And the crackling, oh that crackling sound!
