Laugh. It Is Cheap Medicine

Laughter is our reflex to something that tickles our funny bone, our reflex to something which we find amusing. It is when we find, or see the humour – in a joke, an action or a situation.

It doesn’t matter what kind of humour you like to indulge yourself in, as long as it makes you laugh. Humour has an intellectual, as well as emotional element. Since we are all different, we respond to different types of humour. The important thing is to take things easy. See the humour in your everyday life. Laugh whenever you can. And where possible, help to spread some laughter wherever you go.

I hope the following selection of humour will bring on a chuckle, or put a smile on your face. Have a great weekend!
