For The Love Of Laughter: Embracing Humor in Our Lives

Laughter has a unique power to bring people together and create moments of sheer joy. It is a universal language that transcends cultural barriers, making us feel more connected and alive. In a world filled with stress, responsibilities, and uncertainty, embracing humor has become more important than ever. From boosting our mental well-being to improving relationships, laughter holds the key to happiness and contentment.

As children, laughter flowed effortlessly from us. We found amusement in the simplest things, even the mundane became an opportunity for laughter. However, as we grow older, the weight of adult life often makes us forget the essence of laughter. It gets buried beneath our worries and daily struggles. But why should we let this happen? Rediscovering the love of laughter can truly transform our lives.

Laughter has numerous health benefits. It has been scientifically proven that laughing can lower blood pressure, reduce stress hormone levels, enhance the immune system, and even alleviate pain. When we laugh, our body releases endorphins, also known as "feel-good" hormones, which instantly boost our mood and create a sense of well-being.

THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL "HOW TO BE A CLOWN BOOK”. IT IS MORE LIKE A "WHY DID I BECOME A CLOWN AT AGE 32 AND WHY AM I STILL CLOWNING AT AGE 59?" BOOK.

The how-to part is fairly straight-forward, but the why aspect is elusive and inexplicable. For The Love of Laughter is a compilation of my own hands-on experiences as a clown over a 27 year period. I just wanted to set down my memories before they faded.

Trained as a nurse in both the Emergency department and Intensive Care Unit, my career path was laid out for me by the time I was 24 years old. However, becoming a professional clown was beyond anything even my creative brain could imagine.

I hope my stories might inspire and touch anyone who has ever wondered what life looks like from this side of the makeup.
