Last night I did another show with the improve group that I’m a part of. It was great. I got to work with a bunch of really talented, funny players, and got to help make the audience laugh and have a good night.
But this has only made me realize so much more how situational laughter can be. As much as I love my goal to help 1,000,000 people laugh, I think I need a sub goal as part of that.
Something like I will teach 100 people to laugh for no reason by the end of this year (2010). The number is a lot smaller, yes, but the full process may take longer.
I was talking to someone the other day about laughing for no reason, and the benefits and deep breathing and such, and a few days later that person came back and said how she had helped someone else laugh when they had been stressed out and having a bad day.
THAT made me feel on top of the world. Sharing what I know so that others can share it and it grows.
This is my goal, my purpose, my vision.
Keep laughing.
