Laughter has a healing power
While drinking in a bar Jane laughed flirtingly And said " lovely he is" Who "I asked with anger" "The man behind you" Jane never poured cold water But now I had ice on my head I tried to conceal my anger But Jane's low-tune giggles Further infuriated me badly When I looked at the man I saw a man looking at me He was me staring at me He was me in the mirror I and jane bursted into laughter I was nearly jealous of my image I was nearly afraid of myself �

A great gift of God, to laugh at myself; I, too, am so funny at times!

Abdi-Noor, we join in the gift of laughter, for the joy of being alive, of being wrong at times, for that is how we grow.

Cheers to your ice cubes. Fergus
