HUMOUR & LAUGHTER
A sense of humour costs nothing, yet creates much.
It enriches those who receive without impoverishing those who give.
It happens in a flash and the memory of it can last forever.
No one is so wealthy, they can get along without it.
No one is so poor that they are not enriched by its benefits.
It creates happiness in the home,
Fosters goodwill in business, and is the counter-sign of friends.
It is rest to the weary.
Daylight to the discouraged.
Sunshine to the sad.
And nature's best antidote for trouble.
(Author unknown)
You can see from this poem, that your sense of humour is far too valuable to be left to chance. It is helpful to think of a sense of humour as an appreciation of humour. Just as people have the ability to appreciate music, art, a hobby or sport - we all have the ability to appreciate humour or to laugh at something. You don't even have to be naturally funny, nor do you have to create humour of your own - it's all out there just waiting for you to find it!
Your sense of humour is just like a muscle, you need exercise to keep it flexed and firm. The humour training we're concerned with is called humorobics which will help to get you 'humour fit' to think and be even funnier. With a stronger sense of humour you are more likely to see the funny side of things and laugh more often - and when you're laughing, you cannot be stressed.
For example this is why a sense of humour is a valuable asset to any family. Families can be a great source of pleasure, fun and support, but they can also be difficult at times. One reason for this is that the things we find tolerable or even amusing in our friends, can be unforgivable when it comes to family. The closer we are to someone the more we expect of them so that we can be easily disappointed when our expectations aren't met. One way of dealing with this is to reduce your expectations and activate your sense of humour.
Humour is a great communication tool. It can reduce conflict and unite family members, especially in tough times. A sense of humour enables you to take what you do seriously (and farming is serious) but take yourself lightly. Most people take themselves too seriously and family members are no exception.
HOW TO THINK FUNNY
Most people leave their sense of humour to chance. By this, we mean that although we occasionally go to see a funny movie, or hear a joke, or stumble on a story, we don't always make a habit of it. As a result, very few of us have tapped our 'fool' potential for humour and all it needs is a little training.
This sense of humour training is really quite simple - if you want 'funny' out of your brain, then you've got to put 'funny' in. In other words, if you want to think funny thoughts and say funny things, you must have a repertoire of humorous material in your brain so you can pull something out when you need it.
What we suggest you do is to be more aware of collecting humour until it becomes second nature to you too. This means putting as much humour into your brain as you can find, and then trusting your brain to sort it out. Don't worry about putting too much in, we've never heard anyone say, I'm too funny'! In no time at all, you'll find the funniest thoughts just popping into your brain at the oddest moments, or when you need it most.
And if you come you will know how you can train your sense of humour!!!
