Yesterday when I read the daily prompt, “laughter”, the first thing that came to mind was the laughter that comes when being carried off to the asylum; at least in the movies. In reality I do not suppose there is much laughter involved with being carted off to a psychiatric facility. That is unfortunate, though. Laughter fixes most everything. It may be a temporary or superficial fix. It probably won’t fix things to other folks satisfaction. Nevertheless, laughter does the trick during difficult times. It saves us from the moment. It saves us when we need it to.
I am still pondering why my immediate reaction to the word. “laughter” took the direction it did. My reaction amused me which produced and entirely different sort of laugh. Randomness in general amuses me. I like that about myself.
I’ve decided that today I will attempt to make a mental note of all the varieties of laughter I engage in or encounter. I am not looking for any scientific answers or philosophical revelations. I just think it will be fun; maybe good for a chuckle or two.
Peace, love and laughter to you all.
