Affirmation for December 16, 2011: Have a Laugh

We dont laugh because we are happy -- we're happy because we laugh.William James
Thought of the Day:
Looking down the street even in dark and bleak times, we still see a person here or ther smiling and laughing. They are so much brighter and seemingly care free where sometimes we look at ourselves and wonder how they can uphold such optimism. Sometimes we even feel frustrated seeing these happy-go-lucky people when we ourselves can barely find a moment to smile. How are they so happy?
Holding a sense of humour about the ironies of life and the ability to keep our hearts light even if it forced can do wonders to our psyche and spirit. In awkward situations or when we are presented with information that could be damaging to our futures, we can sometimes crack a smile or whip out a nervous giggle. These are natural ways for us to cope with the stress of bad news or the negativities that life throws at us.
It may seem somewhat inappropriate at times, but the truth still remains; a smile and a giggle can only do good. It can only relieve the mind-boggling stress of disappointment or worry and help us to regain balance and focus.
Have a laugh!
