Laughter is good for the soul and can cause a domino effect that spreads joy to others. Making use of our sense of humor is profoundly relaxing, as it prompts the body to dispel stressful thoughts and ease tension in our muscles. When we laugh, our thoughts are subtly transformed and we can't help but see our life from a humorous perspective. It is almost impossible to feel angry, depressed, or anxious when we are laughing, and even a forced laugh can increase our level of happiness. Laugh at something, and it's likely that you'll soon find something else worth chuckling over. The ability to laugh is the body's built-in stress reliever. Let us laugh and share our laughter with others today, and let all we meet reap the benefits of our good humor. Why not try this today and whenever you feel angry, anxious or depressed.

hi dear Pose and thanks for this lovely reminder of how important it is to laugh. When I dont have a reason to laugh I just get to youtube and watch some kitten videos thats plenty of reason to laugh, no wonder I love cats they are stress relievers too.

Hi RitterSport, Thanks for sharing. I have have two cats and couldn't agree more about them being great stress relievers. There are so many resons to laugh and so few for being grouchy. Blessings.

wonderful you have two furry friends to cheer you up. I sure would like that too but the renting contract forbids cats in the apartment so I got to rely on these nice videos instead.

I have some days when all I can do is smile, the next time this happens I'll try a little extra effort to laugh. Thanks

Hi Pose: I have laughed at different moments of my day today. As I have stated one day in one of your discussions, it was hard for me to understand that trying to be the "serious guy" was not the best choice for me and about how much time I was losing for not laughing and put a smile in my face everyday.

As they said laughter is the best medicine. I used to be the joker in the group that always make the people around laugh. I am a jolly person and used to laugh everytime because laughter can take away stress and can make us feel better.

I'm always laughing at at least one thing daily. There is always something on the internet to find if I can't find it anywhere else. They always say laughter is the best medicine I think there is truth in that because as you said, you can't be angry if you're laughing

Nah, I don't find much to laugh about around here. Maybe a grin every now and then. If you would like a little chuckle for the day, look here: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2676391.aspx It's adorable.

I always laugh. Everyday. Even when I am weary. I don't laugh at people, but with people. I laugh at myself, too. I laugh all the time. I can even find even a small non-annoying laughing matter in some serious problems so that people who are engaged in the situation will not develop wrinkles. And they thank me for it. I laugh all at work... even before I was able to read a quote that said something like, "Laugh, so that the frustrated colleague will find hope." Why laugh just today when you can laugh everyday?

Yeah the laugh is like magic. Without it we can't show when we are happy. Also there are groups of people who laugh and with that they cure mental trauma from like car crashes. So the laugh is magic and cure that the nature gave to us and we have to be happy with that.

I will definitely laugh as loud as i can whenever i can. If there's something funny to laugh about i will surely do it. Of course i won't be laughing randomly out of nothing. People will think that i'm crazy. Lucky for me i have many friends around me. Just a joke and laughter will come.

Laughing is always profitable and make the person stress free. It is associated with the soul. It is associated with the family and the society. We can take serious decisions easily if the environment is light and smiley and laughter. In the opposite circumstances even a single decision is tough to take and there is no guarantee that it is perfectly Okay.
