Laughter is a gift from God, and I love to take advantage of that gift. Laughter helps me temporarily forget the struggles of this life. Laughter injects joy into an otherwise gloomy day. Laughter lifts me out of the pit of introspection. Laughter refreshes me and rejuvenates me. Nothing is better than a night spent with good friends, howling with laughter.
Proverbs 15:15 sums it up well: “All the days of the afflicted are evil, but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.” (Proverbs 15:15)
Laughter helps me to have a cheerful heart.
