Laughter is a great thing and we've all heard the saying, "Laughter is the best medicine" so I believe
if you are too busy to laugh, then you are too busy.
I came across this a while ago not only did it make me laugh but it stuck with me because it describes things in the exact way that I see them "When I was a kid in school, my teacher told me to write down what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy, she told me I didn't understand the assignment, l laughed and told her she didn't understand life." I wish I was that wise from an earlier age, but hey! atleast I got there because In my quest of finding my inner-winner I found that the only way to truly win is to be content and only then can you start the journey to true happiness.
As the years have gone by I came to the realization that the happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything and the best feeling in the world is realizing that you're perfectly happy without the things you thought you needed. There are countless indicators of what you should achieve/feel like once you have reached happiness and for me the most important has to be the one I find most contagious of them all; laughter. Laughter is the physiological response to humor and it consists of two parts, a set of gestures and the production
of a sound. When we laugh, the brain pressures us to conduct both those activities simultaneously. Many researchers believe that the purpose of laughter is related to
making and strengthening human connections. "Laughter occurs when people
are comfortable with one another, when they feel open and free, therefore the
more laughter there is, the more bonding occurs within the group." So if you bring more laughter into your life, you can most likely help
others around you to laugh more, and realize these benefits as well. By
elevating the mood of those around you, you can reduce their stress
levels, and perhaps improve the quality of social interaction you
experience with them, which in turn reduces your stress level even more!
