I periodically pick up my copy of Anne Wilson Schaef's Meditations for Living in Balance and thumb to the current date. I'd like to share yesterday with you. It was a zinger. Humor I realize that humor isn't for everyone. It's only for the people who want to have fun, enjoy life, and feel alive. Anne Wilson Schaef Choices - we all have choices. The choices we make in the little things often determine where the big ones will fall. Take humor, for example. Almost every aspect of our lives has the potential for having some humour in it. We hire a good investment person, we pay costly actuaries and lawyers, and we happily plop in money for several years -- only to discover that the investment person was at best incompetent, the actuary was an alcoholic, and the lawyer was a joke. Meanwhile, the IRS is panting at the door. What do we do? Slit our wrists? Cry and rage in frustration? Maybe -- or we can laugh and mumble something about the "best-laid plans of mice and men" and move on to the salvage operation. Nothing seems certain in this life except the periodic need for salvage operations. Humor helps us have fun, enjoy life, and feel alive, even when things are not going as planned. "Nothing seems certain in this life except the periodic need for salvage operations." Too bad it won't fit on my license plate.
