Learn To Laugh

One of the first signs of mental breakdown is inability to laugh. It is not positions that makes you happy; it is your disposition, your nature, your make up, character and your propensity. Laughter reduces health sapping tension and relaxes the tissues as well as exercises the most vital organs of human system.


Those that frowns grow wrinkles prematurely but when you smile, it increases your face value. I watched a documentary on the television; a research was conducted in America which revealed that most comedians live up to 100 years. This is because of the lighter mood their profession demands, they make people laugh at all times. While laughter sends healing waves round the whole body, frowning, anger and malice dry man's system.

If you do not want to grow old untimely, call everyone you have issues with and settle once and for all. This will enable you live long. You must also be happy whatever you do per time. Like your job and be excited about your assignment. When your job pleases you , you become tireless and want to do it more and more , if your job does not excite you, you easily get tired. If you keep managing such job, it might slow you down in destiny and shorten your life span.

Cherish what you have. Those  who nthink only of what others have which they do not always look unhappy. Learn to appreciate God no matter your  condition. If you are grateful for what God has done for you, He will be compeled to do more.

Conquer That Stress : Smile Daily.

Please frown your face and turn the sides of your mouth down. Imagine it’s your birthday and your friends or spouse. Frown more! Hold It ! How do you feel ? Okay now, Smile. Let the corners of your lips slide heaven wards  ( upwards) . Imagine the birthday card has just arrived. The surprise party is for you. Bigger smile! Hold it ! How do you feel? Better ! Here is why: A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.

Researchers have shown that when a person smiles, there is a reduction in cortisol, a chemical that provokes stress in the body and an increase in mind-elevating endorphins ( hormones) on the social level, an honest smile cancels hostility and draws people near you. It takes more muscles to frown than smile in the human body. Laughter has a protective effect  on the immune system by increasing anti-body producing cell and

activating virus fighting cells.

The act of smiling engages at  least three major muscle groups, increasing blood to the face and thus helping to create a glossy glow. Yet despite all these benefits, a smile is free. I heard recently that the great philosopher, Akin vats  used to make himself to laugh every morning for 10 minutes as  soon as he got up. I tried my own version for about 5 minutes of that exercise.

Laughter is the  biological reaction of  humans to moment or occasions of humour. Every laugh you make cuts short the miles and hours and days of drudgery/DEPRESSION. No matter what you are going through rejoice or pretend to rejoice if need be , but don’t die through tears, self-pity, depression, worry or anxiety. A man is not finished if he can still laugh. 

Edgar Watson Howe wrote: If you don’t learn to laugh at trouble, you won’t have anything to laugh at when you are old. “Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine” No wonder  Micheal Pritchad wrote: He who laugh last, Laugh longest.

Indeed a day without laughter is a day wasted, nothing shows a man characters more than what he laughs at. Refuse to pity yourself, forgive yourself, reject depression because your best days are still ahead.
