Laughter
Laughter is not always what it seems. Sometimes the clown is the saddest of us all. Laughter is not restricted to the funfairs of our life. The concentration camps echo with laughter too. When crying is too painful, we have no choice but to laugh. We should not be surprised. We laugh to cope. We laugh to survive. As the sizzling sparkler of life, laughter often seeks out the darkest places to shine. we laugh to cover up the embarrassment of being confused by life. Laughter is our tacit way of acknowledging that things don’t always make sense, that we are silly creatures after all, and that life is a mystery we are nowhere near close to cracking.
