Yesterday on Facebook someone posted this saying….
And it really does sum up my theory on life.
Deep down we all want to laugh. But for many, they are afraid to laugh. If they laugh, they have to let go of their pain for just a moment. And if their pain is their security blanket, it makes them vulnerable if even for a split second.
But, being the butt I am, I will work hard to show them that split second of happiness.
So my challenge to each of you today is that for the next 24 hours you try to be the beacon of light, that tempter of laughter.
Yep, our goal is to help others find their smile, find that small moment of laughter. Be the person who gives them that smile that might just get them through their day.
So my little soldiers… let’s get going…I don’t care if you do it via your blog, your Facebook, in person.
The ONLY rule is, you have to commit to lighting someone up if even for a second. And in return, I guarantee your heart will become full in return.
So Lets Go Make Someone Laugh!
By the way My Soldiers of Laughter ~~ Feel free to reblog, share, like, hit all the buttons you can to help pass along this challenge to as many people as we can… 😀
And if you are reading this in the future…the cool thing is..This doesn’t have an expiration date
~~~till we laugh again~~~
MIssion accomplished! I had an entire class of 9th graders laughing at Act I, Scene I of Romeo and Juliet. I worked some magic this morning! 😉
yahoo! I wish I could have scene it (get it.. lol seen / scene) oh never mind, funny in my mind.. Awesome Job Soldier! 😀
I accept your challenge, and the minute my sullen teenager gets home from school, I’ll blast LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It” from my IPod and get to dancing. That usually does the trick. And it’s a good way to induce nausea too…
I’ve already got the visual in my head.. and I’m cracking up! Let us know how it went
I make this my mission every day. I love to laugh. Let’s hope more people share our philosophy.
The sad thing is… some people laugh or smile and don’t enjoy the moment. Even denying they did it.
Our office Eeyore/practical jokester usually replies to my, “Good Morning” greeting with the challenge “What’s so good about it?” We banter a few minutes about silly & serious “good” stuff and then each of us goes about our day. This morning he changed it up on me and asked, “What’s so ‘morning/ mourning about it?” Gotta love a co-worker who refuses to let you take yourself too seriously or function in the world on auto-pilot.
Think I’ll go sing the Simpson’s “Spider Pig” song to our stressed-out receptionist. 😉
My sister is my Eeyore, drives her nuts that I’m always trying to make her laugh or smile once a day…. We are so mean you and I 😀
I’ve made a start. Anyone who doesn’t at least crack a smile at my Pringle eating is dead inside. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMQ1OFnqg3M&feature=g-upl&context=G2676b1dAUAAAAAAAAAA
Thank you for leading the way! 😀
Ok, that was funny…I’ve always loved your blog. And yes, the Pringles made me laugh! I could only do that with their Onion Dip version. Yummy.
Let’s spread the laughter! 🙂
wow you didn’t make me…what’s that word?…wa..wai…t? the baby pics are so cute, where you making the faces along with them?!
They are cute aren’t they? I was going to make you WAIT but thought I’d be nice. 😉
phew! thank you, dodged a bullet there! they are cute!
Great, you pick the one day my blog isn’t funny at all, but full of blood and … oh, never mind.
wow, you weren’t kidding…lots of blood and guts… LOL… but i’m sure some one out there finds that stuff funny so mission accomplished!
Now you think I am I am doing lowbrow humor, when really all I was trying to do was give people yet another glimpse into my twisted mind through my artistic output while trying to convince people that I am not dangerously insane… sigh…
Oh, don’t worry, I’ve known about the dangerously insane for a bit now 😉
NOT dangerous… shhhh…
oops, my bad….
Can’t we hurt someone instead? That’s so much easier on me. Getting someone to smile defies gravity. Their face has to go up. So much work!!!
Yes, but you LOVE a challenge…or just be funny being you, that is always good for a laugh for me… LOL

Let’s all join the challenge to get as many people laughing as possible!
Any day I can make someone laugh is a good day. In fact it’s my goal everyday! It was a day for a serious blog today, but tomorrow I will try for some levity.
works for me! 😀
I’m going to try and ‘share a smile’!
