dance2I met a most delightful couple yesterday.  They had been married 62 years and exuded joy, humor and good will.  In fact, he was so exuberant that while we were talking he started dancing the Lindy!  He is 91 years young.

They believed that it was up to them to create their own joy.  She shared that her mother told her “to marry a man with humor” and that’s exactly what she did.  They still laugh at each other’s jokes!

With all the hustle and bustle of the season are you enjoying your partner’s or friends’ humor?  Do you wish they would just “shut up” so that you can get on with all the things you think you need to do?  Your thoughts and attitude show up in your behavior.

Day 31 Just for today, let go of the ‘need to do’ list and enjoy each moment with your partner and friends.  Laugh out loud at their jokes (even if you’ve heard them a thousand times), and dance for no reason.  Pay attention to how this makes you feel, notice the difference in your behavior and the behavior of your partner and friends.
