...well, not really.

I'm sitting here pondering what humor and laughter mean to me in my life.

I've come to realize that I have deep, abiding, and nearly spiritual beliefs about laughter. To make another laugh may be the closest we ever come to the divine. To bestow upon another a moment of joy so intense that you must laugh out loud....that's pretty incredible.

I love to laugh. I love that specific moment when the punchline comes. When all the world's catastrophe's, both private and public are, for an instant blown away by human's most basic of emotions.

Love fades, as I'm sure we're all aware of. Hatred can be brough to bear. Friendships can dry up and be blown to the winds.

But...laughter. True laughter. This can cross all boundries.

I sincerely hope, that whatever divine being is watching over me has a sense of humor. To think that God, or Goddess, or whatever you may believe laughs...it's a very comforting thought, no?

Hmmm.
