Laughing Through Life
Attitude counts in life. Sometimes, we take everything seriously and it might seem that we carry the weight of the world. I believe in letting up a little, here and there. A good laugh, we all experience it now and then. Life is just so much more fun when you are able to see the funny side in things. Even when things go wrong, a touch of humor allows for such a hard day to feel that much brighter.
Imagine you run late for an important meeting, or you are stuck in traffic and spilled coffee on your shirt. It's very easy to get upset with such a situation, but what if you just paused for a second and had a chuckle about it? Laughing about the little things helps me get over them quicker and not stay hung up on the bad stuff.
It seems to me that this is exactly the type of character that the happiest people seem to approach life with. They find joy in the little things, in everyday life. A good friend of mine carries a smile on his face every day, even when he doesn't get the perfect day as he intended. He says it is all about the ability to find humor in everyday life. His happiness is contagious and I cannot help but feel better after spending time with him.
Humor is not just in laugh, it is in a completely new perspective of the world. Everyone has their problems but through comedy, even the big issues feel completely different. Sometimes what we consider to be a huge issue in the moment looks silly when we are laughing about it later. I tend to try and remember these things when I'm off course. Instead of getting frustrated, I ponder how one day in the distant future, the same unfortunate situation will be hilarious to me.
Life is too short to be serious every day. The sense of humor we bring into our daily routines is colorful for life.
