Letter H...Humor -
I assume that there are some people on this planet that don't enjoy humor. It is almost unfathomable to me but with 7 Billion people on the planet there is no accounting for taste. Keanu Reeves has an acting career for God's sake.
I have been blessed to be surrounded with
people who have given me the gift of laughter my entire life. Any
sense of humor I have comes from my father.. He is 78 and still has a sly wit and
a weakness for a bawdy joke but not too bawdy. My brother and sister have both brought me to
tears with laughter more times than I can remember. Even in the difficult times of our sibling relationships I still remember an abundance of laughter.
Now I am blessed with a quick witted wife and two
children who are too funny for their own good. This isn't to mention
all of my friends through the years. You know who you are.
Have you ever laughed so hard that you think you've pulled a muscle? Do you ever laugh so hard that you lose your breath? Because of the people in my life I do both almost on a daily basis.
Mel Brooks said
"Humor is just another defense against the universe." I am thankful
to all my friends and family who have helped me fight the good fight over the
years.
