NOT w/ food in your mouth!


Today I've been thinking about the importance of laughter. Despite irritating me beyond words, my campers make me laugh beyond measurement. One camper in an attempt to say "Oooo you said the F word", said the whole word. Even though he slipped up and said the curse word I laughed hysterically at his attempt to censor himself while telling on someone else. Also, the camp director was mapping out how many months until basketball season and said, "You have July October September.." I could not stop laughing! The mere fact that he skipped all the way to October and came back astounded me. I know I've been blessed with the gift of laughing hysterically over nothing sometimes. But I wanted to let everyone know that a simple laugh, can brighten up your day, lift your spirits and just fill you with a sense of happiness. So take some time out of your hectic days filled with work, family, friends and stress and just laugh. Not some lil laugh that doesn't make an impact, but laugh from your gut, until your whole face beams with happiness, and tears well up in your eyes. It does more than serve your body, it serves your soul. It'll be worth it.

Love,
Jess
