DRAIN NEGATIVITY FROM YOUR SOUL WITH THE SIMPLE ACT OF LAUGHTER

- Atishay Jain Innervoice@hindustant­imes.com n

A very important facet of being human is to stay happy and humorous. In today’s mindnumbin­g stressful lifestyle, let alone achieving physical fitness, staying cheerful and lively is itself a herculean task but still essential.

Complicate­d relationsh­ips, the work and life imbalance, financial problems, to name just a few, are just the tip of the iceberg which compels us to suppress that immortal child in us resulting in the slaying of some more beautiful jokes and smiles every day.

Humour is the real tonic for life to stay fit with a healthy heart, gut, and mind. With every bout of exuberant laughter, we tend to refresh our souls to a greater extent and allow it to pour a bucket full of negative energies out of our bodies.

Humour is the major ingredient in the delicious platter of life that God has baked for humans.

What makes us different from animals and plants is the ability to crack jokes and laugh.

We should respect it, relish it and share it with friends and family to smile, enjoy and make good use of whatever years we have left with us in our piggy banks. I feel that by not taking offence on pranks, and by not intentiona­lly cracking nasty jokes on others, everyone can live a healthy happy and humorous life.
