Stay Humorous

Tonight, my Toastmasters club presented an awesome humorous speech contest with three wonderful speakers. I laughed so hard and had tears in my eyes. At the same time, I loved the stories and messages the speakers used to unveil humor.

I wonder why sometimes I feel like being humorous, and sometimes do not.

Most times, if I'm relaxed, I'm more likely to be open-minded, easy-going and talk funny things. I tend to smile more as well. I like the time when I act that way and I feel people around me more friendly.

When I have something in mind, I may just act the opposite: I look gloomy, my lips are tightly closed, and all my humor seems to run away. I don't like that, however, I usually don't notice I'm in that state until a long time passes.

I don't have a perfect solution to stay humorous at all times, but as long as I know it's a great thing, I can purposefully focus on spotting the gems in life and hopefully, the good feelings and humor come back to me more quickly.
