When I was a child, my mother regularly received, "The Reader's Digest."  There was a monthly article in the digest titled, "Laughter Is The Best Medicine."  That phrase stuck with me as a child and I believed it.  Later, as an adult, I read extensively about the effects of laughter on the human condition --- mentally, physically, emotionally, etc.  According to the experts and studies, laughter could help heal extreme sickness and disease.

I am fortunate to have some very funny friends and clients in my life who keep me laughing on a regular basis.  Their stories, and even some tales of woe, always have a funny twist to them.  Of course, I have a big laugh and a great appreciation for humor, so my friends really enjoy getting me going.  And, though I sometimes forget, it is the laughter during the day that allows my mind to take a  break from some of the more serious matters at hand.

This is a little "shout out" to the many friends, family, clients, and associates who give me a good dose of medicine on a regular basis.  I'm feeling strong and healthy due to your influence.  I appreciate that you continue to keep me laughing.
