I am reading the book from an Brian Smolin. Tickle your soul. Leave will love much. Laugh often. Page one. The ultimate. While you're in me, there is nothing like a good laugh. It tickles our very souls. Laughter is an activity of the heart. We scrunch our souls with negativity and a lack of enthusiasm. But laughter smooth them out. Laughter makes a noise so others can hear our feelings. Joy is a state of mind. It really is an attitude that keeps us healthy. We are all born with a sense of humour, but it is a gift we must develop as we eat. This process does not end until death. The payoff for developing a sense of humour is that we simultaneously off for health and wellness. That's what this book is all about. It's about joy and laughter and humour. It's about alternatives to help us lead happier lives and help those around us enjoy us even more. It's about feeling our hearts with life. It's about wrinkling our faces with smiles and not letting her soul's dry up like prunes. It's time to look for smiles and joy and laughter in happiness. No one needs to look for sadness. It has a strange way of hitting us right in the face. Everyone has a horror story to tell or a crisis to relate. Maybe we get so bogged down in our tough times that we forget there is always another side we can look at. Or perhaps it's fear that no one will think were important enough or think we need them. That leads us to hold onto our heavy, sad, depressing stories. Joy can lighten our environment. Joy frees us to breathe more easily and see things more clearly. Joy. Let's oxygen into our blood and into our brains. When that happens, we begin to think differently. We can be healthier, more relaxed, people the church with theology and feel hard. They tried, Dean wrote. Joy is the most invaluable sign of the presence of God. Perhaps we can begin to see this presence of God in one another. If we did, then we will start to treat each other in a kinder, more thoughtful, more respectful way. And it's all starts with you. The prison you look at in the mirror because joy is not really doing it's really more like peeing many people have not learned the importance of taking care of themselves. We give others endless hours of our time. We begin to stutter when we have to say no. However, if we don't take care of ourselves, we can never begin truly to pay attention to our minister to anyone else. Recently, I was in an aeroplane. And, as is the case where many people who travel often, I tend not to listen to the flight attendant as she instructs the passengers. The message is always the same, no matter what airline you are on. This time, however, I became distracted when I heard the flight attendants say, and when the oxygen mask drops down, put it over your own face before you put it over the face of your child. And she said, those routes. I found myself watching a mother two seats in front of me play with her little child. I began thinking about watch. Would I do if the child your mind, I would want to protect child and be sure the child was saved. That would be my first instinct. I would want to put the oxygen over the child's face first and then attend to myself. I started to picture what would happen in the chat. If the scene become reality, the cabin pressure would change so immediately they if I did not place the oxygen mask over my own face first, I will not be able to think clearly and will not have the ability to attend to the child. Oh, the importance of taking care of ourselves. This, in a way implies that we become self centred or selfish. Rather, it means that if we do not have a respect for ourselves and a healthy sense of self importance, then it is nearly impossible for us to develop a respect and healthy sense of importance for others. One way to begin to take care of ourselves is to laugh if we think about it. Humour is a pretty cheap remedy. It costs nothing and the results are fantastic. We don't need to go to a position and seek a prescription. All we need to do is to change some negative perceptions and attitudes. Um, relax. If only it were that easy. Still, we are going to use up energy one way or another. So why not make the choice that has positive payoffs. Humour releases the same endorphins that shagging us, so we get a natural high without having to purchase new running shoes and clothing. Perhaps the mosque consoling piece of information is that we don't have to jar our knees or ankles or hurt any muscles or major organs to enjoy this search of positive feeling. Humour heals angle axis If you use the joy that gets hammered out of us by lives, daily shocks, humour gives us power. We often cannot control situations or events, but we can control our response. Instead of discouragement or despair, we can claim power. The image we have of ourselves and the image others perceived are so important. How we look, how we dress in our facial expressions, how others hear our message, our eye contact. All of those create our image. Sometimes we think, Oh, she's in a good mood just because the person has a smile on her freeze. Or we might decide this is not a good time to bring this item up to him because of the expression on his face. The examples of how we make charge mints based on our observations are countless. Recently, I gave a keynote address for a Catholic School Superintendents Day that they began with Mass. The woman who organised the service stood behind the podium on the altar and began giving the instructions. Please stand and greet the celebrate and seeing the opening song I Got the joy, Joy, Joy, Joy down in my heart. As she spoke, she stared at the group with a face that would have stopped the Energizer bunny. I thought of how little joy was reflected in her face. It said anything but happiness to me. Yes, I charged on non verbals. However, we must remember that so often that is our only source of information. One time I was on a business trip to Hawaii. Everyone in the airport seem to know this tall, good looking, very muscular gentleman. He was surrounded by people asking for his autograph. I kept trying to find out who he was and finally decided to be. They hear it, I said to him. Everyone else seems to know who you are, but I don't. Who are you? He responded. I am the ultimate wire. I quickly said I still don't know who you are. He told me he was the World Wrestling Federation champion. I could have guessed he was a wrestler. His neck was a thick as a three drunk. We had a lovely conversation about kids today. Schools, families and values, among other things.
