Be a Humour Activist!

First of all, Happy Belated April's Fool Day! Just realised the importance of humour in an everyday life and how much it can serve to motivate, inspire or even revitalise our tired souls. I was almost dying earlier this week when Juliana showed me a clip of a stand-up comedian called Russell Peters. I laughed like mad and the madness eradicated all distress and fatigue accumulated over the past 3 days before I watched it. Amazing reaction.
Although we may never make it as a stand-up comedian, I believe that humour can be injected in all forms and fashions. For example, notice how funny 40tish placid balding men look when they attempt to comb their hair in such a way that conceal one empty patch but not the other? A close visual recall will be Donald Trump. See how they are deliberately not spreading humour but are actually a joke themselves?
My point is, there are so many creative ways to spread humour. Some spread it by treating it as an occupation, some spread it by not intending it, some spread it by trying too hard to, some spread it using actions and some spread it with words. Whatever methods they use, remember that there will always be people acknowledging or even appreciating these efforts. Therefore, never feel disappointed if someone fails to understand your jokes. (people normally can't comprehend mine too..) Just pretend that they do and laugh your way through as 'laughter is the best medicine' especially for such a funny and awkward situation like this.
