"Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine."

Lord Byron (1788 - 1824)

Seriously.

Laughter releases "feel good" chemicals in your brain! And it even has a positive impact on those around you who see or hear you laughing.

I'm pretty sure, though, that this refers to genuine happy laughter and NOT the mocking, ridiculing laughter of meanness
that is aimed at someone else's expense.

So, have a good belly laugh today! You'll feel better if you do!

My father had a hardy sense of humor which made him a person people enjoyed being around.

Laughter has helped me to cope during the most difficult of times.It boosts the immune system AND lowers stress hormones.

There have been some recent studies that show that the act of laughing, not the feeling, is what causes the benefits. So even if you don't feel like it, laugh.

laughing is fun and it lets out a lot of relief and/stress. when you don't need to let out strees or relef it is still good to laugh. it is a very positive thing. it can have a very positive affect on the rest of the people that you might be around at that moment. the only times that laughing is not okay is when it is to mock or hurt another person. laught with them and not at them.
