When I was growing up, people used to observe that I was very serious. As a little kid, I was always thinking about learning, growing & being mature. I didn’t like it when restaurants would have “kiddie” menus because I thought that was condescending. Suffice it to say that I was super serious.
Now days, I’m not quite so serious & probably what I most like to laugh at is myself. I take myself far less seriously now & I think that a healthy dose of humorous humility is very constructive for lots of different reasons. I also like to laugh with my kids – one of whom just pulled out an empty Starbucks gum tin from inside his footie pjs, leading me to 2 questions: what else might he keep in his footie pjs & why does his keep the gum tin in his pjs???
So I’d encourage you to laugh today, look for ways to enjoy the diversity of people, encourage others & find a few constructive ways to take yourself less seriously 🙂
