Your attitude is like a box of crayons that color your world. Constantly color your picture gray, and your picture will always be bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture by including humor, and your picture begins to lighten up.

And, unlike the earlier bombing on the World Trade Center, a major landmark and symbol of the strength of the financial world was, not just damaged but, totally destroyed.

Since the goal of my programs is to show audiences how humor can both help them heal as well as deal with not-so-funny stuff, I decided to discuss the events of the previous week, the pain all of us were feeling, and how humor and some laughter might be beneficial.

Humor can alter any situation and help us cope at the very instant we are laughing.

Kids can amuse themselves with almost anything.

There is always something to chuckle about. Sometimes we see it. Sometimes … we don't. Still, the world is filled with humor. It is there when we are happy and it is there to cheer us up when we are not.

There are no language barriers when you are smiling.
