A time to laugh...

A wise man once said:
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die… a time to weep and a time to laugh… a time to mourn and a time to dance… a time to keep and a time to throw away… - Ecclesiastes 3
People say that laughter is the best medicine.  And recently, I’ve been finding that taking TIME TO LAUGH is especially important during times of transition as well.  It makes me feel better (all those endorphins running around have GOT to be good, right?  Check out the facts in blue here.), and it helps me keep a smile on my face despite feeling lost and confused from time to time.  Best of all, it’s just fun.

When I was in High School, my daily routine after school was to come home, eat a bowl of cereal, and read the comics before starting on homework for the night.  (It was either that or bouncing on the exercise ball in our living room with a friend to relieve brain stress from Calc class!)  It was good for stress relief and gave me a break from the day.  Unfortunately, they don't print American comics in the Tanzanian newspapers... but I did finally find a site that allowed me to keep up-to-date on the latest and greatest free laugh-inducers!

Since many of you are embarking on a new school year – either with students, or in curriculum meetings this week… and simply because I’ve found some good comics the past few weeks… I thought I’d share a few with you!  And maybe help get YOU into a routine of mid-day laughter as well!






And, my favorite...
Happy Laughing!!!
