Laugh A Little

June 19, 2019

One of my assets is my ability to find humour in things, even in stressful times.

I am reminded of the time when my Dad was hospitalized with a suspected tumour. When I arrived at his bedside, we learned it was an abscess and not a brain tumour.

I quipped, “At least we have medical proof you do have a brain.”

Living life on life’s terms can be anything but funny, but if we can keep a sense of humour about us, things that might overwhelm us can be made bearable.

Just for today, when I make mistakes, I will find a way to laugh at the humour of my imperfections.

I left the hateful rhetoric of Facebook to come here to carry a message of hope and healing I'm in recovery from addiction and rebuilding a life filled with purpose and creativity. Whether I'm playing the piano, baking, gardening, or knitting, I’ve found healing in the simple, meaningful moments. Buzz Kill Diaries is where I share honest reflections on recovery - one day at a time.
