Laughter is the best medicine

Hi Guys - There is a commercial that says "Stress Hurts", I really feel that if you could avoid
ALL stress from our lives, that we wouldn't hurt. After I completely blew up and resolved some of the stressers in my life I, temporarily, fell pretty good. I say temporarily, because there is absolutely no way to completely remove stress, if you care about anything. Do you agree? In the months to come, I am to learn some relaxation techniques other than what I am doing now. I know that prayer works, but sometimes, I can't turn off the "what ifs" and "how comes?" There is an old cliche', "Laughter is the best medicine", and I'm inclined to believe it. When I feel myself going down, mentally, I recall a conversation that Dustin and I had a few weeks ago. I was really depressed,and said "one of things that I'm having trouble with in getting over Drew is, that I didn't get to know him as a sober person, and for that matter, he didn't know me as a sober person". Dustin said "Yes he did mom, and he didn't like you, remember?" I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants! So, if you start feeling low, try to think of something funny. I know it's impossible to think that way when you are on your way down, so find something that makes you laugh on a day that you feel good, so you can use it later. I'm telling you, it helps! Until later -- Debby
