Laughter!

Last week Ryan and I had my sister and a friend over for dinner. We were sitting at the dinner table eating and talking and our conversation led to laughing. Gut-busting, tears in your eyes, can’t talk or breathe kind of laughter.

It felt SO good!

Since it is April Fool's Day today it seems only appropriate to talk about laughter.

What makes you laugh? What makes your friends laugh? What makes your man laugh? Do you strive to make those in your home laugh? Or your co-workers or friends?

Laughter is good for us mentally, spiritually and physically. In fact, laughter is a gift from God. Job 8:21 says: "He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy."

Here are few quotes on laughter to inspire you to make laughter a priority in your life:

We cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh.
- Agnes Repplier

The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. - e.e. cummings

And an all-time favorite of mine: "Sexiness wears thin after awhile and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that's a real treat." - Joanne Woodward

Tell a joke at dinner, watch a funny movie or sitcom with friends, or just work on those "smile" muscles. May you be blessed as you strive to bring laughter to your life today!
