Laughter



It is said that there is no greater medicine than laughter. To find light in any given situation will definitely ease the burdens of the sorrow attached. The heaviness of a given situation may have to play out its solemn course for life has such moments as a part of our lives. As the solemn moments pass, we will find a time to reflect and this will allow us to find the best shards to piece together the picture of our wall of life. The greatest parts to be remembered will rise to the surface in time and be made obvious to us regarding the parts that they played to each of us. The smiles will return and the laughter will restore the humor attached to the memories our life as the occasions arise.


There are many reasons to gather together, but laughter wins out in the end. As we SMFs plan our get-togethers, we are assured that the intent is food, fun and laughter…and not necessarily in that order! The planning and emailing for preparation is fun. The various themed parties are also fun in the making. Recipes shared also keep the fun going. The pieces of many all come together to complete the one. As we talk we remember and share, all with a different perspective and flavor, the single most fun times we can recollect. We laugh and relive through the years all that time has given us to share. And the laughter restores our souls, makes us feel young again in mind and gives our heart wings to continue forward in a like fashion.


This we have done for over the fifty years. I’m planning on doing the same in the next fifty!
