The Funny Side of Life

I love to laugh. When my family gets together, laughter fills the air. We are planning another family reunion soon, and I am blissfully anticipating the laughter. Old stories retold year after year still bring belly laughter.

Where do you find your laughter?

For some, it’s a favorite comedian. For others, it’s a child’s giggle, a pet’s silly antic, or a friend who knows how to deliver the perfect punchline. The truth is, laughter doesn’t always arrive in grand form. Sometimes it sneaks in through the most minor cracks of daily life.

I’ve learned to laugh at myself, which is a very healing experience. Misplaced keys in the freezer, mismatched socks in a serious meeting, or realizing halfway through the day that my shirt is inside out—it happens! Instead of groaning, I’ve learned to smile at my blunders.

Laughter is life’s way of saying, “Don’t take yourself so seriously.”

Laughter is fuel for connection. A shared chuckle in a long meeting lightens the mood.

Even the memory of a laugh, an inside joke you’ve carried for years, has the power to soften stress.

Humor is in the pause, the stumble, and the perfectly timed comeback. Today, try looking for it. You’ll be surprised at how much joy awaits you.

“Don’t just look for the serious, look for the silly. Joy is hiding in plain sight.”

Watch for the blind spots.
