Sometimes, often times, serious topics crack me up. I don’t mean sad serious topics, it’s more so every day life.
The other day, this man had his head out his window on the fourth floor yelling to these people on the street. My first reaction was to laugh because how unserious this conversation had to be. I just picture them as a bunch of toddlers when they were saying they are going to beat each other up. My next thought was that they all need Jesus. The conversation went on for another 10 minutes and it’s more sad than funny after the first few seconds because I can’t imagine arguing with a baby.
Other times, I’ll be at work in a meeting and I just want to laugh so hard because I picture how tiny we are in this world and how unserious the conversations truly are. My boss would disagree, and I don’t mean entirely unserious because it’s a business, but to a certain degree it is so funny to me. Life is just too serious sometimes and I like to remember how small I am. Like here we are, just a bunch of blobs filling our day with busy tasks then life goes by.
One time I was on a zoom call with a financial advisor that a friend recommended. It was free, so, if it’s free it’s for me. But he was kinda cute and I had to keep apologizing because I got a serious case of the giggles. Soon after he told me he had a girlfriend. It’s safe to say he knew I couldn’t stop laughing because I wanted to talk about something else and not my freaking finances. He did not laugh at all. Laughing is super contagious to me. I won’t even know what’s going on but if people laugh, I am in there, I am chucking out a few ha-ha’s.
Maybe I am immature. Probably. But life is more fun this way. Next time you’re in a serious conversation, picture yourself and everyone around you as microscopic. I hope you laugh or smile.
Love always, Hannah.
