Do it.

          They say, "Laughter is the best medicine."

Sometimes, it's a chuckle or even a forced laugh.

Other times, it's a really good belly laugh. The type of laugh that boils and bubbles inside of a person and then erupts. It's a hardy, abs work out, type of laugh. Those laughs are the best. It's especially a good laugh when accompanied by a tear or two, happy tears. Tears that show appreciation for humor and bliss.

          You know, that, "BAHA HA HA HA!" type laugh.

We can't forget the sweetness of a soft, gentle laugh. Not all laughs are necessarily boisterous and loud, but private and lovely.

          We all do the, "heheheh" laugh every now and then.

It's not the volume of the laugh, but the enjoyment of it. The exhilaration and enchantment of it. It's the satisfaction one feels afterwards.

          I say, "Full fill that need to laugh."

Make others laugh and laugh at yourself. I hear it's contagious. No matter if it's a burst, giggle, snort, roar, or snicker. Do yourself a favor, and laugh.

" A joyful heart is good medicine..."

Proverbs 17:22

"He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with shouting."

Job 8:21

"Mirth is the best medicine, everybody ought to bathe in it."

- Henry Ward Beecher

"There can never be enough said of the virtues, dangers, powers of a shared laugh."

- Francoise Sagan

Here.

Grew up and raised here,
Friends here,
Family here.

Thayer Street,
Fed Hill,
Hope Street,
and Wickenden.
So bold and eclectic.

Broad Street,
Elmwood,
Cranston Street,
and Smith Hill.
So alive and so urban.

All sorts of people,
from all different places.
Accepting, beautiful,
Diverse and lovely.
So original and different.

Music, art, culture,
the richness surrounds us,
everyday.
We are here.
I am here.

So small, big heart.
My city, Providence.
