Funny Friday: Laughter is Contagious

The May 17, 2013 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"  is
Have you laughed today? What were you laughing about? If you haven’t laughed yet today, find something funny to share with the rest of us.

Have I laughed today? I had not laughed until I started writing this entry. I started laughing after composing this entry because I had to find something funny to share. In addition to finding something funny, I found out that fifteen minutes of laughter is good for your heart. I will post the video that started me laughing, but for the video about laughter being good for your heart; well, I suggest a youtube search for that.

Have I laughed today? Yes, after watching Anderson Cooper breaking up I laughed. I laughed because laughter is contagious or at least it is for me. I cannot hear or watch someone else laugh without laughing myself. I laugh every time I watch that video because I cannot help myself, if someone else is laughing I will laugh. I wonder if doctors have did a study on laughter being contagious; I think it would make a good study and probably explain why people in an audience laugh at the comedian. The following video is more proof the laughter is contagious.

Food for thought on Laughter: "Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it." - Bill Cosby
