Shared laughter
creates a bond of friendships.
When people laugh together,
they cease to be young and old,
teacher and pupils, worker and boss.
They become a single group
of human beings.

let there be laughter

For in the dew of little things
the heart finds its morning
and is refreshed.

I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter,
the sound of which
has always seemed to me
to be the most civilized music
in the world.

I don't think I've ever gone through a whole day without laughing at least once, and I hope to keep it that way! Once I've had my morning caffeine hit, it doesn't take much to set me off...in case you haven't already noticed, I'm easily amused at the best of times. What makes you giggle? Is there something that makes you laugh even if you're in the most terrible mood?

I love this post. ;D thank you for sharing the wisdom.
I loved this post and a really needed it!
I am totally stressed out re Mats visa (they contacted us asking for interviews and thigns argh!!) So this was a beautiful post!!
There is a couple of stupid and totally embarassing things Mat does to make me laugh hysterically (poor boy, i wont embarrass him and reveal!!)
Fabulous post xx
The photographs and quotes are so charming! Excellent pairing! You started my morning off with a smile. Thank you.
I always giggle when I see/hear children laughing or playing. I think they're the most adorable and innocent things! Their emotions are honest and they've no cares like the rest of us. In their laughter rings pure joy. :)
PS: I loved this post. I'm smiling widely now.
For someone supposedly 'unreliable', you are a relible source of something happy and irreverent. You are way cool!!
this is lovely, your blog is so inspiring
thank you, I needed that this morning :)
Lovely post :) Am addicted to your blog
Ah, I really need a laughter-reminder! Thanks, this made me smile! When I'm upset, my (unofficial) boyfriend would pick a little daisy or little flower for me and say something cheesy like "A flower for my flower"! haha! Cheesy lines like that make me laugh!
I have alot of imagination, so if someone tells me a situation in which he/she was, I can imagine the scene and sometimes exagerate it even more and we laugh even more. I love this blog, it makes my day, everyday! :)
Thank you; I needed this today; the visuals the quotes, both are fitting and soothing to the soul. Kit, you are a gift.
No matter how hard the day is, my son's laughter always soothes the weary soul! Love the picture of the baby in hands.
My brothers and I always make each other laugh. Even during the hard times, we'd talk seriously about what need serious consideration, but eventually one of us would crack a joke and we'd all be laughing in no time. Even though we are 27, 31 and 38, and living hundreds of miles apart, all it takes is a phone call and we can instantly slip into our 6, 10 and 17 year old selves, making each other laugh until we cry.
A wonderful post as always, Ms. Unreliable. Thank you!
My nickname in high school was "Giggles". It doesn't take much to set me into a laughing frenzy. People say they know I'm coming, because they recognize my laughter first.
Laughing sets me free from problems, concerns, and duties. Nothing compares to a good hearty laughter! It releases your endorphins, a natural "pick up drug" in your brain. What loveliness!
Great post. Brought a smile to my face. :D
This is inspirational, and it in the simplest way it just makes me happy. :)
Fantastic quotes! I've never thought about how long I've gone without laughing. Now I'm going to have to pay attention...
Great post - I love laughing but making people laugh is always better - I love sending a coworker something funny and then hearing them laugh - especially when they are having a bad day!
gorgeous post !!
This made my day! The pictures and words together so simply evoke emotion. Thanks for making my day a little brighter :)
that little girl with that penguin is so awesome :)

Edward makes me laugh.
And so does David Sedaris. I once ran off the road driving to the beach because I was laughing so hard at one of his CDs.
Love those photos. So clean and fresh and bright. Adorable.
