laugh

this is dead serious
you've got to have a sense of humour about it

about it all really
life
the universe
most certainly about
yourself

so if you don't have a sense of humour already
get yourself one today
like now

the fact that you can laugh distinguishes you 
from every other species on your planet
it makes you
human

and beyond that
it makes
being human
bearable

if you can laugh about it
then that puts you one step ahead straight away
of anything and everything life may ever throw at you

this isn't always easy
obviously
some things may seem too sad too awful
some things may even be too sad too awful
to laugh about them

let that be so
everything does not have to be funny all the time
quite the opposite

but most things
though not all
most things
over time
become
funny

so try to see the funny side of it
it may well make you
​laugh
do you really need a reason to laugh?
