Laughter

The times when I think people are impeding my time alone,

to “think,”

are actually times when I need to listen

and take advice from others.

You have the rest of your life to be alone.

The rest of your life to think.

Every moment with someone else

is a sacred encounter.

You can see yourself in them

and realize things you would’ve never realized

alone.

Even if people just only bring you a good joke,

there’s nothing wrong with always laughing.

Laughter heals,

songs make us lighter,

bringing us closer to our true spirit,

and further away from earth, pity, and the tragedy in life.

We receive what we give.

We need other people

to help bring us closer

to our inner soul

even if they’ll never hear her voice.

We’ll be able to hear her voice more clearly

alone

only after a moment of laughter

together.
