Laughter | Career Angles
By Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter
Remember when you could laugh uncontrollably?
We need to laugh more. We need more laughter in our lives.
We need to laugh more at ourselves and our foibles than we do.
Were so damn serious as though the mistake that we made was going to bring about the end of Western civilization.
Most of what we do doesn’t matter.
Then there are the moments that do and that are essential. Obviously, we need to be vigilant for those.
But the rest of the time, find a way to laugh is that being so damn boring!
By the way,
Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says “Calm down. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says “OK, now what?”
Did you let yourself laugh?
