Laughter, like art, is a universal language. It is something everyone understands, regardless of language or cultural barriers, and it is contagious. Whilst there is not much to laugh about during the refugee crisis currently dominating our headlines, there is hope that joyous laughter, rather than fear and hatred, will become our common currency during these troubling times. It is hoped that happiness agents rather than fear-mongers will be first in line to infect refugees with joy and relief when they arrive looking for safe passage to a better life for themselves and their loved ones.
I should probably have added this post to my Artist Research section, but today’s WP Daily Prompt: Roaring Laughter is a good fit.
When was the last time you had a belly-ache laugh? Here’s wishing you an infection of laughter today (and bonus points if you infect a stranger with some of the same.) 😉
I so agree, we need more ‘happiness agents’ than fear mongers! Laughter unites people! Fear separates people. Focus on joy each morning!
I love laughing at myself. I’m so stupid sometimes 🙂
I agree Laura. Thanks for your comment. 🙂
The world needs more smiles and laughter 🙂
