        Have you ever noticed how deeply connected you feel to someone with whom you share a belly laugh? Can you imagine fighting or arguing with that person? If you are the one that caused the belly laugh in another you probably feel incredibly blessed because something you gave of yourself was received in another’s soul.

        What is it about this deep laughter that creates a bridge between us, joining us on a higher level of oneness? I believe it is a gift of Divinity to the human soul. As far as we know no other living species has belly laughter. I think we could surmise that dogs and maybe cats smile, but I don’t think they laugh. Proverbs tells us that “laughter does us good as a medicine”.

Medical science tells us that orgasms make us healthier too. Hmmm.

        Laughter is probably more accessible than orgasms for most of us; but almost as rare for many. Deep laughter could be the key to saving humanity from our current health and world conflict issues. What if we were to learn what different cultures found hilarious? Can you imagine how much more connected to them we would feel if we made them double over in laughter?

        People are very open and vulnerable when they let go and laugh till they cry or wet their pants. You are never the same with the one who brought you to that state of release from your prison of self control. This is why I think it is like an orgasm. I’m not trying to downgrade sexual orgasms. Rather, I am trying to elevate our awareness of humor that heals.

It is said that when you share your body with another that you bond at a soul level with that person. Even if a relationship doesn’t last the two stay bonded. Orgasms are usually limited to two people whereas laughter is more inclusive.

        In the case of laughter we can experience that orgasmic bond, because we drop our masks, open our hearts and meld together in ineffable joy. The joy is the overcoming power of the divinity within us. In that moment we become one. We feel love and appreciation for the immense release of energy the laughter created.

        So why don’t we focus our creative minds on discovering hilarious topics to spring on each other to experience a spontaneous explosion of wholesome joy? It will help heal our bodies and it will diffuse anger and conflict. The best part is that it is free and there is no end to its availability.

        I wish I had a terrific joke to tell you here, but possibly the content of this article will do it for you!
