I remember the question of my employer during my interview, "What is the first thing you do before you go to work?", and I answered, "I laugh." After my answer, I saw him smiling. Well, that is me. I always laugh. You see, I am an Intensive Care Unit Nurse and it takes a lot of courage, patience, and determination be able to do perform my job properly and accordingly. I believe that still, laughter is the best medicine of all. So, I always make it a point that I laugh before I go to work. Fortunately, I was hired and still working with him. Patients sometimes forget for a while their physiological, physical, emotional and mental pain.
You laugh because you are happy and you are happy so you laugh. Laughing is free and it is not an act of craziness if you laugh at yourself while facing the mirror. You start your day with a good laugh and end it with a smile. That is how I do it. I laugh at myself and I feel glad and delighted. Also, it enhances my confidence that I can do anything. Laughing relaxes you and enhances self-belief.
One of my patients was admitted in the intensive Care Unit because she lost her appetite and she was losing weight fast. So, the doctor inserted a tube via her nose down to her stomach. This is where the food will pass through. As I approached her, I asked her, "Why are you not eating?" She told me that, she has no craving for food anymore. I told her that the best things to do in life are to eat and sleep. She smiled at me. As I continued talking to her, I advised her that the next time she will be asked by her children what type of food she wants, she will tell them she wants two hamburgers. Why two? Well, I told her, "One is for you, and the other one is for me." The next day, there were two hamburgers and we ate the burgers together. After a while, she was released from the ICU and was transferred to a regular ward. The tube? It was removed from her because she started eating already.
I know that everybody has his own little funny characters. Nobody was able to live life without laughing or smiling sometimes. We all need some humor in our life to overcome the pressures and difficulties of life. To be able to be funny, you have to be yourself. No matter how difficult life is treating you, all you have to do is to laugh at your life! No one in this world is happy to see a person who is sad and misery. But, everyone likes to see people smiling with one another and laughing with each other.
It does not matter if you cannot be expert in the field of making other people laugh. What matters is that you believe that you can make other people happy by just showing them who you really are. Happy people have the ability to infect other people, and as a result, it makes everyone cheery and happy. Remember, a happy person becomes a productive and creative human being.
