How can I ensure I laugh?
Anytime I am with my girlfriend we find many things to laugh about.
How can I let myself worry in a healthy way?
Worrying is never a healthy thing to do. The best I can do is to minimize my worrying, reduce the effects to where I can do something about the problem.
@Offmytrack
Sounds you have a great relationship.
When you wrote your answer I realized the mistake I made in writing in the post so I corrected it to "let our worries out in a healthy way". Thank you for bringing my attention to it.
I try to watch comedies or Sat Night Live each week.
For sadness, I think I just feel it and try to see if it has a physical reason (like hormones) or if it is more mental. Usually my husband and I cry on each other. ☺️
@Zengrl
Comedies are great to make us laugh. Glad you can find comfort with each other, something very important.
Hi everyone,
I have two kittens that make me laugh almost daily. And I have learned to laugh at myself too. Example: I do not lose or misplace things. No. I hide things from myself!
For worry, I have faith that works. I worried much more when I was younger. After being on the planet half a century +, I have figured out that you are going to win some and lose some and worry wont change anything. Sometimes though, when a bigger problem arises, I practice living one day at a time. Do what I can about it today, then let it go until tomorrow.
@Chickadee123
Some of the greatest words I heard, love your attitude 
@amiablePeace77 see the funny side of life.
"If you can keep your head together in the midst of all this confusion, you simply do not understand the situation"
Remember we are not old we are more experienced than others!
@soulsings
Wise words Soul and yes, we just have more maturity (like a good old cheese 😄)
Laughter not only makes us feel better if helps our body feel better!! Had some great laughs over the weekend with friends.
@caringPanda45 yes laughter helps us produce endorphins so we feel better. Even just a little smile helps us feel better.
@caringPanda45
Panda, I completely agree. When we laugh we strengthen our immune system. Happy for you that you could have some laugh with friends.
