Bite sized truth that becomes life sizedprinciples: When a little boy on his scooter hit a bump in the sidewalk and took a tumble, he
paused and then burst out laughing. A passer-by who saw no fun in the bruises asked: “What’s so funny? Why laugh about it?” The boy replied, “Mr., I’m laughing so I won’t
cry.” Occasionally we adults hit a rough place in life and suffer a spill; now that is a good time to laugh, lest we lose self-possession. Laughing is a safety valve which lets off the tensions of irritations; if the valve doesn’t work, we become as grim as an owl, but without his proverbial wisdom.
“Even in laughter, the heart is sorrowful.” – Proverbs 14:13
