Caution, laughter is contagious.

Have you ever noticed that when you see someone laughing, you soon to start laughing? You may not not what they are laughing about but you sill start laughing none-the-less. Well, laughter is contagious and it's a good thing, in my experience it is anyway.

Why is it contagious? Because it makes you feel better afterwards, no matter how bad you feel or how sick you may feel, it always makes you feel better about yourself and the world around. To explain more on what I'm talking about here are two articles to show what laughter does to your body.
The Health Benefits to Humor and Laughter
laughter is the "Best Medicine."

But they have done studies to show that laughter has a positive effect on our bodies. But hey, you don't have to take their word on the matter. Try it out on yourself and see what happens in the end. Tell a good joke or share a funny picture and you'll get you results. So I leave you now with some jokes to read. Pretty soon you'll have the laughing "bug" and will be spreading it all around.

Some funny jokes:
Why is it necessary to be quiet in church? (A kids Joke)

What do you call it when a vampire bites a teacher?
A blood test.

How do you catch a Squirrel?
You climb a tree and act like a nut.

A chicken walks into a library and walks up to a Librarian and says Book.
The librarian says you want a book?
Book.
The librarian goes and gets a book and gives it to the chicken.
An hour later, the chicken returns and says Book, book.
Two more books? replies the Librarian
Book, book.
So the librarian goes and gets two more books and gives them to the chicken.
An hour later the chicken returns and says Book, book, book.
Three more?
Book, book, book.
She goes and gets three more books for the chicken. This time she decides to follow it.
Out of the library, down the alley, then the street, gets on the bus, goes to the forest, then to a river and then a swamp. The Chicken lays the books out in front of a bull frog to look at. In reply the bull frog says
reddit, reddit, reddit.

A Wise Old Owl

I learned a saying when I was younger by a neighbor who used to babysit me when my mom was gone to work. He made me and his children memorise it and I can still say it today word for word. It has a meaning to it and it may mean something different to you from what it does to me. This is how the saying goes:

A wise old owl sat in an oak.
The more he saw, the less he spoke.
The less he spoke, the more he heard.
Why can't we all be like that old bird?

What this means to me, taught by the very same man who taught me the saying, who I might add is a devout christian, is that God gave us two eyes to see more, two ears to hear more and mouth to speak less. He gave us two eyes and two ears to see and mouth to speak less so we can see and hear the beauty of God's creations around us.

So what does this saying mean to you when you read it?

An after thought: This saying can also be applied to ones writing. A writer sits down and observes what he or she is writing about, right? Well when we observe the surrounding around us, we have to see and hear but not talk. So you might consider the Wise Old Owl saying to be used in how we write our poetry, short stories or novels and anything else we can dream up.

Happy writing everyone.
