A couple years ago, you couldn't even get me to smile in a picture. Nowadays, it seems like every picture I take I'm laughing or smiling ("way too hard" as I like to tell myself). I've come to realize that a laugh - much like a yawn - is contagious. It's hard to hear or see someone laughing and not be infected with their good humor. And it's also a great way to enjoy life.
The Idea: Laugh until you cry...and try to do it a couple times a week. Despite the pressures and responsibilities of life, there must be something that can invoke your laughter.
The Cost: Zero...just a good joke or a memory.
The Benefit: It relieves stress and a good belly laugh can help tighten up those abs. It also does wonders for your outlook on life.
Testimonial: I have a coworker who's good for at least one guaranteed laugh-til-you-cry moments a week. I have several friends who are great storytellers, who are also guarantee a good laugh. And I have friends whose laughs are so contagious, that it's impossible for me to hear them laughing and not join in. The combination of these things (plus shows like The Office and Best Week Ever) have provided me with many hours of laughter.
When was the last time you laughed? If it's been more than a week, you need to lighten things up.

Thanks Debbie! You are so right :)

Love it! I'm sure I don't have to tell you how much I love to laugh. Laughter is nature's free medicine, that's the way I see it:)
@Queenbea: "nature's free medicine" huh? I love it!
