I came across this old daily attitude email and it reminded me of one of my goals the last few weeks – laugh more – have more fun.

Men, women, and children who cannot live on gravity alone need something to satisfy their gayer, lighter moods and hours, and he who ministers to this want is, in my opinion, in a business established by the Creator of our nature. If he worthily fulfills his mission and amuses without corrupting, he need never feel that he has lived in vain. – P. T. Barnum

We watched “The Greatest Showman” yesterday and this quote reminded me of one of the recurring themes – making others laugh and feel good is a worthy pursuit.

It’s too easy to fall into the trap of constant worry and stress.

We put pressure on ourselves to be perfect or to get it all done.

We lose sight of ourselves by allowing the unimportant and trivial of life dominate our thoughts.

We can let go of all that.

We can laugh.

We can play.

We can enjoy our work.

We don’t have to choose busy, worried and stressed life everyone else.

We can choose peace, joy and love instead.

Make it a great day.
