How can we all get more laughter into our lives?Here is what the experts suggest:
1 .Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N.Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing.Then she married a circus clown(小丑).“I became interested in the clowns,”she recalls“One day I put on a costume and paint my face.That afternoon my whole life changed.I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.” 2 To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.
3 It doesn't take you too much time and can be easy.Collect favourite cartoons and jokes.Also, keep a paper for writing down humour you find in everyday life.“Good ideas come and go fast, you have to capture them quickly or they are gone,”says Virginia Tooper.
Laugh when you need it most.“ 4 ”says comedian Bill Cosby.“And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it,”he insists.
