The Importance of a Sense of Humor

          

       Some people take everything seriously. As a result, they

 may lack lots of laughter in their life. Others, however, are

humorous. They always put things in a positive light. In fact,

even General MacArthur understood its importance, so he

prayed for his son to have enough of a sense of humor.

     A humorous person can not only live a happier life , but

bring others happiness as well. Take my uncle for example. He

is such an optimistic person that everyone wants to make

friends with him. Whenever we meet him, we will be

overwhelmingly infected by his cheerful spirits and bubbling

laughter. Once asked what he would want to hear at his own

funeral, he lost no time in replying, “Gosh, this man is

moving!” At first, we all gave him a confusing expression. Then

the next second, all the audience burst into laughter.

Undoubtedly, he successfully turned a serious topic into a

totally different one.

     Humor plays an indispensable role in our lives. Think what

the world would be if it were no longer to have any sense of

humor. It is actually too frightening to imagine. To sum up, the

more humor people possess , the more merriment the world

will abound with!
