Having a bad day and getting some laughter

Share

Much like everyone else who had to weather all bad trips or negativities around; like that virtually unnoticed associate in one corner of the office, or that kasambahay who had to succumb the ire of her boss due by putting salt in his coffee by mistake, or like that contestant booted out of the AI (American Idol), I also experience a bad day.

And i just had one today, and this blogging thing is my therapy.

But the problem is, I had to control myself because this is not my personal blog, rather, of the book KAPENG ARABO. And so, I had to ease out and psyche myself that we are still living in a good world after all.

Nonetheless, having a bad day is as natural as combing your hair or putting toes inside old shoe, and so we need something to counter its effects.

And here's what i found on the net, some interesting thoughts.

1. Here's an article from oprah.com. The topic really is about interview with Daniel Pink, the author of "A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future" but during the course of interview, you'll come across the idea that there are laughter clubs where the agenda is for people to come together and laugh for no reason at all. Accordingly, they recite "Ho-ho-ha-ha- ha, ho-ho-ha-ha- ha, ho-ho-ha-ha- ha" repeatedly.

According to Pink, this is a brain exercise we all can do. Laughter is not about laughing at a joke or at something; it's about the physicality of laughing. It's laughter yoga, or a kind of meditation. And we call can do that. Check out the rest of the article by clicking here.

2. Ok, fine if you are not amused with laughing for no reason at all, here's a video I personally couldn't stop myself laughing after watching. But please, I have the least intent to discredit Ms.Barreto. And I know this is an old old video, but I just found it funny at the moment. No offense meant to all the fans. Check it out:
