The invention of the Ice Cream cone (1904) gives a new flavor to laughter!

 Whooo Hoooo…23 minutes of laughter today! The flavor of this day is entirely up to me and if licks were laughs I would have slurped up quite a number. Something to contemplate on this day of the invention for the Ice Cream Cone… lick or get licked. 

Well those might be good words to ponder as this morning as I attempted to get on the laughter call I had more use for laughter as I dialed, redialed and practiced the hang up and call again laughter throughout. By the time I reached my destination callers had made for a beeline exit as asking them to laugh by themselves for two and a half minutes can be a challenge, particularly in our instantaneous world. Most who know me would just laugh along and get there fill, though this is just solid laughter. 

So there I was just laughing along and I thought, hey maybe I can organize this desk or delete some of this email and ha ha ha I laughed along instead, like whistle while you work mindfulness. And while things whisked along, I also noticed I was literally in the mind. As there’s no right or wrong way to be in this challenge, it was just different for me. I noticed the laughter wasn’t as full when obligating the mind so I just let it all go and noted the difference. 

It is different in the way that the body opens naturally and more gets expanded. So today I licked up a little of the constructive laughter and the unconstructed. Noticing both were flavorful and it would depend just upon what I was looking for. 

What sweet 23 minutes will you take for yourself to find joyful laughter? Or will it be another flavor of laughter?
