A HANDWRITTEN LETTER

by Earlie Doriman 

The handwritten letter from my
mother-in-law Sarah Sanchez

My mother-in-law is a truly amusing person. She never ran out of good jokes to keep people around her burst into laughter. But she’s no intruder to occasions, she knows where and when to share her comic lines and stories. She is definitely an antidote to boredom and her stories are not just for fun for the sake of laughing, they most of the chances end with brilliant lessons to life and faith. This time last year, she was here in England on vacation and she stayed with us for six months and in those times she had not failed to crack a witty relief everyday.

THERE IS LIFE IN HUMOUR

by Earlie Doriman

I have always been interested at hilarious stories. When I was a kid, I remember an Uncle who used to tell us jokes about anything. He was very popular amongst children my age because he never ran out of short stories and once he started to share his wittiness, we glued ourselves around him to listen and laugh our hearts out. I could not keep in mind now how he did that, but what I remember clearly were the happy faces of my childhood friends and the empty silence that would take over every time my Uncle declared he was done. After he left, we all tried to replicate the jokes and made it our own by saying them again prompting another bursts of laughter. But there is nothing better than the original piece.

So indeed to me, humour, comedy, joke, funny story, or whatever you call it, is naturally relaxing and a neutralizer to the saturating pressures of work. That will explain the fact why I love comedy shows and films. After all, there is no substitute to the decent therapeutic elements of feeling happy and feeling good when you laugh. As the saying goes: ' Laughter is the best medicine'. When I listen to good jokes, life becomes more beautiful and pleasing.It keeps us young.
