Thought for the month...
Laughter is the best exercise, the cheapest medicine, the cheapest vacation, the cheapest tonic, it stirs the blood, exercises the chest, stimulates the nerves, chases fear, prevents ulcers, cures the blues, relaxes strangers, wins friends and gives all a cleansing rehabilitation.
Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. Laughter is the shock absorber that eases the blows of life
"The person who can bring the spirit of laughter into a room is indeed blessed." - Bennett Alfred Cerf
"Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects." - Arnold H. Glasgow
"An optimist laughs to forget, a pessimist forgets to laugh."
"Beware of those who laugh at nothing or everything." - Arnold H Glasgow
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. - e. e. cummings
