“Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of Humour, which is awfully important in this day and age. Humour has a tremendous place in this sordid world. It’s more than just a matter of laughing. If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.”~Dr. Seuss. This science of mirth is no laughing matter, but it is wonderfully amusing. We’ve studied laughter, it is its own science called Gelotology. Laughter helps us socially, mentally and physically. It has evolved for good reason. Here’s why: LAUGHTER AS A SURVIVAL INSTINCT: “It’s time to take humor seriously, and seriousness humorously.” Swami Beyondananda. The philosopher John Morreall believes that people first laughed as a sign of relief after they were exposed to danger and then shared a collective sigh as that danger passed. Some researchers are trying to figure out if primates did their own form of stand-up. This subject has been scrutinized for centuries, with people trying to figure out just what makes something funny, and how the tickled fancy supports human beings in their evolutionary process. Many say it is an instinctual survival tool, and not the cursory response to a razor sharp wit. Surely, if children can deliver peels of laughter after hearing a soldier in worn-torn Afghanistan pass gas, it must serve some greater purpose. “I wanna live. I don’t wanna die. That’s the whole meaning of life: not dying! I figured that shit out by myself in the third grade. ~ George Carlin, Comedian. “A sense of humor – is a needed armor. Joy in one’s heart and some laughter on one’s lips is a sign that a person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.” ~ Hugh Sidey, journalist LAUGHTER AS A COMMUNITY BUILDER: Laughter is the way we bond with one another. Laughter is contagious, and so are the bonds that are formed among people who laugh. We usually feel closer to those we’ve shared a laugh or two with. It doesn’t even need to be expressed verbally. Charlie Chaplin made a whole career out of making people laugh with just his expressions. Surely the audiences who watched his black and white films felt closer to one another. “I’ve always thought that a big laugh is a really loud noise from the soul saying, ain’t that the truth!” ~Quincy Jones, musician. LAUGHTER CURES THE SICK: When we feel a heart-felt chuckle, it can cure a panoply of ills. Laughter lowers cortisol levels (which are linked to all sorts of stress-related diseases including heart disease and high blood pressure.) Getting the giggles also increases the antibodies in your blood, which boosts the immune system so we can more easily evade bacteria, viruses and parasites. In a recent study, laughter was found to boost the immune system by as much as 40 percent! In the study women watched funny films in one group and dull boring films in another. When the films were completed, researchers took samples of the women’s killer cells, our natural disease fighting cells, and mixed them with cancer cells to see what would happen. The women who had laughed out loud in the films had much healthier immune systems, capable of even destroying cancer cells, than the women who had watched some boring tourism films. Now that’s a powerful way to keep people from being sick without spending trillions in health care costs. Instead of pumping violence and anger into our media channels, how about a little more hilarity? Laughter also makes us more physically beautiful as it brings increased blood flow to the skin through increased aerobic activity in the lungs and heart. Laughter even lessens depression. “I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person.” ~ Audrey Hepburn, Actress. LAUGHTER KEEPS US GOING: Maybe the ridiculous or the nonsensical seem to have no place, with the endless photographs being circulated on Pinterest and Youtube of kittens and bonobo monkeys, or the late night comedians keeping our insomniac brains in a state of elevated hilarity, or the best friend who tells us a good joke when we are feeling a little down, but laughter keeps us going. It supports our mental and physical health and allows this mundane and chaotic world to keep turning. “If we couldn’t laugh we would all go insane.” ~Robert Frost, Author. Lesson of the story: Laugh no matter what the situation maybe. If u can be smiling, that's when u can put smile on another people's face. And at least, that's what many people can do with u rather than crying with u.  You can post any funny pictures so that we can all laugh together.

An Ex is an Examples of any Experiences of what should never appear/occur/happen in ur life again. Even if u want to know about ur flaws, not from ur Ex. because I believe he/she will use the chance to bring u down as it'll seems that u're still living in ur past. Forget ur Ex here and focus to adjust on whatever can make the new lucky person stays. 3 Likes |

*Security* in essence that: *Will he be there when she needs to be cared for? *Will he be there when she needs money? *Will he be there when she needs protection? *Will he be there when she needs someone to confide on? *Will he be there when she needs a father that knows what family responsibility means? And, *Will he also be there when she needs someone to provide that fear for her children when they needs to be dealt with? I think any man that has 60% of this qualities should attract a responsible woman with ease. 8 Likes |
