So What Do You Think???
Men are disturbed, not by things, but by the view they take of them. Epictetus Most of us relate the cause of how we feel to the events in our lives. If good things happen to us, we feel happy and satisied. If bad things happen to us, we feel sad or mad. As a result, we spend all kinds of effort trying to rearrange the circumstances of our lives in order to insure our happiness.
Laugh Your Way To a Longer, Healthier Life
When you have a good, hearty laugh, your respiratory, glandular, skeletal/muscular, and cardiovascular systems all get exercised. Here's what happens:
Cardiovascular system: When you guffaw, both your heart rate and blood pressure go up. When you stop laughing, they dip down below normal. It's very much like aerobic exercise. It's why some researchers call laughing "internal jogging."
Respiratory system: After a hearty laugh, you frenquently have to take a big breath of air. Sometimes you cough. Laughing is good for your respiratory system.
Skeletal/Muscular system: Sometimes you laugh so hard you can hardly get out of your chair. This happens because when you laugh you relax your muscles. In fact, sometimes you relax your muscles so much that you [wet] your pants!

LIVE, LOVE AND LAUGH !!!!
In todays day and age we are all in such a hurry. What are we teaching our children? Live life in a rut always rush and never take time to stop and smell the roses...We forgot what life is truly about living not living to survive. Make the time to make someones day, smile more often (okay yes it may be forced but in time it will come second nature.) We need to make more time for us for our children. When was the last time you played with your child went and actually sat down on the floor and played... Dolls , J.I. Joe, legos, drew a picture even?
I built a tent for my kids you know the blanket and what ever you can find to prop it up tent. Then I got the T.V trays out and had made home made playdough. It was GREAT for all three of us and you know later that day the two of them came to me with a picture they had drew together. It melts your heart to know the little things you do will always be remembered.
