The Ability to find things funny

The ability to find things funny comes easier for some, than it does for others. What I mean by this is, I think we all know those people who seem to always be laughing. They’re either laughing because of something they did, or something someone else did, or laughing for no other reason than to laugh. Why is this do you wonder? Well according to some studies laughing will make you live longer. Laughing is always better than crying. Laughing is contagious and will get those around you laughing in the right setting. As I’ve continued to think about this I’ve often wondered if it’s better to laugh things off than to face them head on with a stern demeanor. I’ve come to the conclusion it’s always better to laugh it off. Laughing makes me feel good. Laughing makes me feel like things are alright even if they’re not. Laughing is a way to stay happy and cheerful in the midst of unhappy and dreary situations. And along the path of life we are all going to be around someone who just has never learned the trick to laughing. Never got the point of it. So my thought is, if you can teach someone that you can find almost anything funny, going through life all of a sudden isn’t so hard, isn’t so long, and is a much more enjoyable experience.
