Have you forgotten to laugh?
Laughing openly is a unique gift of life, but this gift seems to be fading in most of the families. As long as childhood lasts, laughter and happiness remain naturally on the face, but as soon as adolescence, youth comes, responsibilities increase, this naturalness of laughter starts to depart from life. When more problems and troubles come, then there is no sign of laughter on the face, then we remember that once we used to laugh, now we do not know how to laugh? As if we have forgotten to laugh.
Where does this smile that used to add charm to the faces of children disappear when they grow up? Why is it not always together naturally? Because any element needs some or the other empty space to live and it is the same with laughter. If the bud is crushed with a stone, then it is futile to consider the possibilities of its blossoming into a flower. Even the softest of things, if pressed with a heavy iron, becomes hard, like the cotton before being stuffed into a quilt and the same cotton taken out from inside after being used in a quilt. There is a lot of difference. The scientific principle of softness is that there is little space between its two molecules, due to which there is scope for movement in those molecules. Same is the case with laughter.
Laughter is related to tenderness, simplicity, ease, kindness, sensitivity. As long as we have all this in our life, the naturalness of laughter remains and as soon as discomfort, stress and anxiety enter our life, the naturalness of life ends. Because of this life becomes more insensitive than before and its softness turns into hardness. If laughter were only a physical act, that is, a few inches of lips spread and some sounds coming out of the throat, then it would not matter, but not so.
With laughter, those feelings dissolve in the mind, which tickle the person, laughing memories also have a touch of those feelings, which force the person to laugh. In comic poems, in fiction, in cartoon shows, there are many expressions which inspire a person to laugh.
Laughter is the ecstasy within a person, the freedom of the mind, the flight of the mind, the reverberation of the heart and the appreciation expressed by every pore of the body. It is a kind of worship of nature done by our inner self, it is a lyrical gratitude expressed towards it.
We are happy when we live a dependable and sure life. From the beginning of the creation till today, mainly this feeling has been at the centre of all the actions of mankind, how to make the life of man more and more happy. The approach he established for this was to make more and more time available to him, but this effort has made man and time rivals of each other and man uses time less and more for certainty. -Does more to garner more worries.
All the inventions that have been made till date, all of them have this objective that man can do his work in minimum time, what he wants to do, he can save time for himself. This left over time is what he wants for his enjoyment, but what has happened is that the person has started using his remaining time to do 'more and more' and not for his life. As a result of this, due to doing these 'more and more things', thoughts, imaginations, feelings and memories kept getting crowded in his consciousness. We are so engrossed in our work that we do not have time for our own other works and therefore laughter also does not get its due place in our life.
The completeness, beauty, quality of life depends on how and how much balance we can establish between its various components and this is the art of living. To achieve our goal, to fulfill our ambitions, we divert our attention from other elements of life, but in these efforts, we leave behind our laughter, without which we are incomplete. This is the reason why a person achieves a lot by being successful, but he goes far away from his natural laughter.
Laughter is the naturalness of life, but this naturalness will remain only when the person comes out of his mechanical and artificial life. Life loses its spontaneity by running life on the same pattern, carrying excessive burden of work and taking life towards artificiality. Life is not only that which is visible, there is a lot in life which is invisible but is an important part of our life. Our inner self, our consciousness which are with us all the time, but we forget them. The person who tries to understand every aspect of his life, is aware of its development, stays close to the naturalness of life and laughter always blooms in his life.
As long as a person lives life under some kind of pressure, he cannot achieve natural laughter. The one who lives life being free, laughter is beautified in his own life. Today, even though many types of tasks, responsibilities, duties put pressure on the person, but if we want to enjoy the real life, then despite all this, we have to create that empty space in life, in which laughter can bloom again and we to be really happy.
