When did you last have a good laugh?

Humour is a funny thing. No pun intended so I will rephrase that – humour is an individual thing. What makes one person laugh may just go over another’s head, even different cultures see the funny side of things in their own way. It’s not even a language thing either, just watch a British comedy then compare it to an American one.

My sense of humour is peculiar I’ll admit. Friends have even suggested that I carry a card to hold up saying “joke”. I have stopped putting funnies in the newsletter after getting an email with the offer of counselling, even David doesn’t get me sometimes.

It was an email from a customer, concerned that our products were not up to coping with global warming that had me rolling on the floor belly laughing like I hadn’t done for ages, which made me realize I haven’t been laughing much lately.

For years, worldwide, honestly we haven’t had much to laugh at. It’s all been viruses, jabs, lock-downs, restrictions, failing economies, war-mongering, elections, and yes, Global warming. We cant trust the media, the politicians and often now are divided from family, friends and neighbours because of choices we have all made.

Crazy! We are living in a negative swirling pool of energetic mud. But I ask, is this because of climate change aka global warming. Joke, just to make it clear. And apology, I acknowledge that ‘global warming’ is now redundant and is now ‘climate change’ because now our Globe’s not actually warming. Or is it, our customer obviously thinks so.

Are you confused? I am, and spend some time every day in a state of bewildered incredulity at the state of things. But when I drill down into it I’m taking life too seriously aren’t I? Lost my sense of humour somewhat in the belief that this theatre that we live in, watching a complex drama unfold, is actually real life. More fool me.

It’s not that I don’t care, I do. This planet is very dear to me, as are peoples’ suffering on it, for which all I can do is ask that they are held very tightly by the Supreme Power, their only hope. But our being caught up in the negative whirl-pool of sludge isn’t going to help anybody. We need to keep our vibration high so that it feeds out into the Universe to overcome the – I was going to say drama, but actually it feels like madness.

Our choice though, how we deal with it, isn’t it? Personally I want to regain my sense of humour, be more light-hearted. Have some good laughs, every day, even at myself for fighting the absurd and taking life so seriously when I know better. Taking my eye off the ball of what is really real. Allowing myself to get out of whack.

I might just start adding some funnies back into the newsletter. Is anyone up for that?

Let me know.
