Comedy relief

No matter how bad it gets, we look for things to make us smile. Comedy provides needed relief. It gives the energy which helps us to keep going.

Laughter is medicine, and sometimes the cure. We realize that our difficulties are not insurmountable. It is indeed best not to take oneself too seriously.

Mockery does not show a sense of humor. It is a snide individual asserting themselves. Putting others down does not elevate anyone in the slightest.

Good humor tends to point fingers inward. We share our experiences for the sake of amusement. The laughter will often be of the sympathetic kind.

It is also amusing to watch people act silly. Yet, if they are mentally imbalanced we react differently. One is therapeutic, while the other is distressing.

We are drawn to those who induce laughter. Years may pass, but our enjoyment remains. There is a special place for the ones who keep us amused.

  1. Yes, happy things are good. Yes, we can distract ourselves. No, mockery serves to show when your blog is self-aggrandizing shit. Yes, you are perfectly capable of deluding yourself so that it is impossible to hear the naysayers. Yes, you can enjoy the people who you have stopped listening to to better help with the self deluding. Yes, you can spend your life laughing and never deal with anything real if you want. Thank you. Good job.

    1. There will always be naysayers. It is important to hear what they have to say. But ultimately, we must do what is best.

  2. It is good to be lighthearted, life does not have to be grim. We can laugh at our own mistakes and choose not to mock those who fall, instead give them encouragement and our own anecdotes.

    1. The lighter the heart, the lighter the load we must carry. People make mistakes and it is important that they do not go to waste. It is so much better to laugh with someone than at them.
