Re: laughter that heals
Dear Marling: Thank you...what a wonderful thing to say...and ya know what, I do love to 'make my companions laugh' :-) I keep getting encouragement by all of the warm and generous feedback from listmembers so I like to return the good feelings! I agree, laughter is important...keep reminding us! Hugs, Gail ------------------------------ Marling wrote: "Most people notice that I sign my e-mail with the reminder to laugh. Sometimes when we are being weighed down with life, pd, and everything else it is hard to remember. I found a few quotes in a book a year ago which have helped me very much. M.Kathleen Casey, "Pain is inevitable, Suffering is optional." What a wonderful thought. Yes having pd hurts, but I do not need to dwell on it or make the pain of it central to my life. I can always laugh. Two for laughter, 1-The Koran, "He deserves paradise who makes his companions laugh." And this means you Gail, Art, and others. And 2- W.H.Auden said, "Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh." I love you folks.
