Ha!

It is the small things in life that make a difference. I was in a room full people who all had different issues and things going on. There was an awkward heaviness in the room that was easy to discern. We all have a story of course. There was casual conversation going on, but out of the blue a comment was made and a sly joke came in after that. The room erupted in laughter and all of a sudden the jokes and laughs were just coming. For those few minutes, people forgot what they were going through, and enjoyed the moment. We laughed and laughed until our sides were aching and the tears were flying. After that moment I, with my analytical tendencies, pondered the experience. I realized that the Bible is so correct when it says that laughter doth good like a medicine. We all left smiling, and the heaviness that was in the room was penetrated and destroyed just by a round of laughter. We as a people need to just laugh. Laugh until it hurts! Laugh until you are struggling to catch your breath.....live, laugh, and love!
