laughter is he best medicine

Quit acting like everything is so serious. Most situations aren’t as bad as you fear, and those that are might benefit from a little laughter.

— Richelle E. Goodrich

Reframing your past painful experiences and seeing them in a humorous light takes away the power and emotional charge attached to the memory of the hurtful event.

— Miya Yamanouchi

Your honor's players, hearing your amendment, Are come to play a pleasant comedy, For so your doctors hold it very meet, Seeing too much sadness hath congealed your blood, And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.Therefore, they thought it good you hear a play, And frame your mind to mirth and merriment, Which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.

— William Shakespeare
