Laugh and the world laughs with you...

Short, humorous quotes can help others to feel better when a rough and difficult day happens.

I always make it a point to memorize a few short, humorous quotes along with a clever and funny joke. I want to be empathetic and supportive, but at the same time, if an opening comes along in the conversation I will pull out a quote. More than not, this has helped to make someone feel much better.

"Laugh and the world laughs with you - weep and you weep alone". Ella Wheeler Wilcox - 1883

When I read your story with the shy pupil, then I was touched, - your writing had depth. That I'm missing here when you write about laughing and also in those jokes you are quoting. I like to tell a joke in certain moments, when a situation needs a light and uplifting energy and then it is astonishing to observe how the laughter in an instant changes and clears up the atmosphere. The question is, if the energy comes from the joke or from the person who is telling the joke... That's probably the reason why most jokes, when one reads them, are not so funny. Anyway, it is good to think about it and so one can use this tool in a more effective way, because one is more conscious about using it.

I made a video some time ago, what I believe is funny and might make you laugh, so this is my 'thank you' to you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Se9Ry3VNDU
