Some people are enviably multi-talented:  they write, paint, sing, dance, cook.

I, on the other hand, have but one talent.  But it’s a goodie.  I write.

I am beyond grateful for this ability. It has been the source of my livelihood for decades.  I have written more ads and commercials than one can count. I have won awards.  I have gained client kudos.  Most importantly, I have paid my bills.

And now, as I approach that age where I am courted by AARP and The Neptune Society, I have graduated to writing just one thing:  what I love; what makes me happy.  I figure it’s bound to make a few other people happy too.

What better way to enhance a day than with smiles, if not downright laughter?

Though I did not know him personally, a philosopher named Aristotle posited that 

“Laughter is a bodily exercise, precious to health.”

That was good enough for me. Sure beats huffing and puffing on a treadmill. And there is another ancient bromide that says, “Laughter is the best medicine.”  Perfect.  Have you checked the price of your prescriptions lately?

So have a laugh or two. I will keep posting as many smiles as my iMac can tap out.

And remember: Laugh and the world laughs with you.  Cry and you quickly run out of Kleenex.

With love & laughter,
Andrea
