What makes you laugh?

Is good for you. What ever you find funny. Personally I like subtle humor with a bit of nuance. I remember back in the 10th grade giving a presentation and I added in some humor.I noticed everybody didn’t laugh at once as the laughter was in ripples. I realized it’s a kind of humor I like I like when for some they get it right away for others the humor sinks in later. I am communicating on different levels.

And later, I realized some people didn’t laugh at all. It endeared me to the art form even more. As to laugh, Sometimes it feels like the humor is meant for you.

So enjoy your humor.

Laughter isn’t just a quick pick-me-up, though. It’s also good for you over the long term. Laughter may:

  • Improve your immune system. Negative thoughts manifest into chemical reactions that can affect your body by bringing more stress into your system and decreasing your immunity. By contrast, positive thoughts can actually release neuropeptides that help fight stress and potentially more-serious illnesses.
  • Relieve pain. Laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers.
  • Increase personal satisfaction. Laughter can also make it easier to cope with difficult situations. It also helps you connect with other people.
  • Improve your mood. Many people experience depression, sometimes due to chronic illnesses. Laughter can help lessen your stress, depression and anxiety and may make you feel happier. It can also improve your self-esteem.

Seriously, have you ever seen Donald Trump laugh. That’s an unhappy man.

    One of my favorite moments was when my son came home from school, maybe he was 7 or so? He described a friend as an “easy laugher”, which meant so much to him, and gave me quite a key to what he values in the world. Still the same two decades later.. his favorite thing is making others laugh.

I would love to hear you opinion as well

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
