We spend all day working hard to take care of our families only to go home and be the caretakers of our families. In my case not only must I see to the needs of my wife, I have elderly parents to look after as well. The highlight of my day usually comes in the form of a funny video or comment on Facebook. I'm able to do the most simple, therapeutic thing in the world, laugh. Not to say that it's not satisfying caring for and being with my family, just saying that the release that comedic moments offers is essential to my sanity. It's been said "laughter is the best medicine " Well, it is. Laughter can also be seen like a healthy virus because it's infectious. It seems to simple to work but it is. I've seen jokes used to keep people from getting beat up. Richard Pryor said he used laughter in jail to keep people from attacking him. It has so many practical and impractical uses.I encourage you to laugh a little today. Watch how your day becomes a little easier. Just a thought....
