6 Reasons Why You Should Laugh Right Now

Why did the monkey fall out of the tree?  Because it was dead.
I will confess: it is stupid, and doesn*t make much sense, but whenever I hear that old joke, it makes me laugh; sometimes really hard. And laughter these days is a valued commodity.
I certainly agree that we have much to be concerned over during these turbulent, uncertain times; but in spite of all the heralded doom and gloom, people need to reclaim their joy. I wonder, do you laugh very often?

I don*t think I laugh as much as I used to. Perhaps this post-Covid world has sapped some silliness out of me; or maybe things aren*t as funny as they used to be; or it*s possible that
I am just getting older*who knows. But one thing is certain, I do feel better when I laugh; I am sure the same goes for you. So, if you have found yourself *laughless* lately, here are a few reasons why you should include a chuckle or two in your life.

1. It is Free:
A good laugh among friends is the cheapest form of entertainment in the world.

2. It Provides Escape:
Troubles abound, so when we get a chance to laugh we should do it. There will be plenty
of opportunities to cry.

3. It Brings Joy:
A happy person enjoys a good laugh. Try it. Go ahead, just laugh.

4. It is Infectious:
Negativity is the breeding ground for misery, but joy is contagious.

5. It is Healthy:
It is scientifically-proven: when we smile we produce more serotonin in the brain which is an antidepressant. 

6. It is Biblical:
“A merry heart doeth good like a medicine” (Proverbs 17:22).
