Laughter.

Hey everyone!

So, I just thought of an idea for this post now. I don't want to make all of my posts super deep and a million words long, because I know it can get tiring of reading a whole book. I will do that sometimes, but I think it's important to change it up sometimes. Do you guys agree?

SO. Today I'm going to write about laughter. Laughter is such a beautiful thing. It kind of gives you this rush, you know? You know when you have a super deep belly laugh when you can't breathe and all you can think about is the thing that's so funny and it makes you laugh even harder? Yeah. Those are some of my favourite moments. I remember I was in Ikea with my parents during the summer, (my brother was at a friends) and we were in the couch section looking for pullout couches for my cottage. And, to just give you some background information, my mom doesn't usually say things that are legitamately funny, but when she does, they're HILARIOUS. So we're in Ikea and we're looking at these couches, and my dad just sits down on one and starts bouncing up and down. (My dad always tries to be funny, but the thing is, he actually is.) I was like, DAD. STOP. You're embarrassing. And my mom was like, SECURITY! SECURITY! (totally kidding) And I just burst out laughing, and so did my dad. It was hilarious. People looked over and I was pretty sure security was actually going to come over and ask us to leave. Anyways, I had to share it with you guys. Hopefully you'll get a laugh out of it too.

But the point of today, is that laughing is good. Yes, there can be totally inapropriate times for it, i.e when you're getting in trouble, but usually, laughter is amazing. I think we so often get wrapped up in life and our school work and drama that we forget to laugh and to smile and to have fun! There's a time and place for all of it, but when you can, it's so exhilarating.

REASONS TO LAUGH OR SMILE.

1. Laughing works your abs. Trust me, it does.
2. Smiling takes less muscles than frowning does.
3. Laughing makes you feel good. :)
4. It's one of the good things that's contagious.

SO. I challenge all of you to laugh and smile about something. It may seem like your life is headed down hill or you've just got something that's weighing you down, but God created things to counteract all of that. So laugh and smile and have fun.

It's amazing.

Happy Tuesday. :)
