On June 20th, I just had my 26th Birthday! I am so happy to still be around and to be so rich in blessings. So thankful to still be alive... the other day I was driving my car and I was singing along to this song I was just thinking about how much the Lord has blessed me throughout my life. I have a loving family, food, shelter, clothing, a car, the freedom to worship as I please...the list can go on and on. This is not even mentioning keeping me alive through 3 bouts with cancer and my daily struggle with dialysis. It got pretty emotional to say the least. I had tears of joy pouring out of my face and a great big smile as I was praising the Lord! (My heart felt like it was on fire!)
Thank you Lord for keeping me around... Thank you Lord for all of your blessings! Lord Jesus, I pray that I will always be a good influence to those that come in contact with me. Amen!

The Power of Laughter (Part 3)
Taking ourselves less seriously
Angels can fly because they take things lightly - Anonymous
"Some events are clearly sad and not occasions for laughter. But most don’t carry an overwhelming sense of sadness or delight. Most fall into the gray zone of ordinary life, and they give us the choice to laugh or not.
One characteristic that helps us laugh is not taking ourselves too seriously. We’ve all known the classic tight-jawed sourpuss who takes everything with deathly seriousness and never laughs at anything. No fun there.
Here are some ways we can lighten up.
*View your life in context.
Even world leaders realize they have limited ability to affect others’ lives. While we might think taking the weight of the world on our shoulders is admirable, in the long run it’s unrealistic, unproductive, unhealthy and even egotistical.
*Be less serious.
Realize that while your ambitions may be noble, being overly serious about them weighs you down and lessens your chances for achieving them.
*Deal with your stress.
Stress is a major impediment to humor and laughter.
*Dress less seriously.
*Keep a toy on your desk or in your car.
*Laugh at yourself.
Share your embarrassing moments. The best way to take ourselves less seriously is talk about times when we took ourselves too seriously.
Pay attention to children and emulate them. They are the experts on playing, taking life lightly, and laughing.
Checklist for lightening up
When you find yourself taken over by what seems to be a horrible problem, ask these questions:
*Is it really worth getting upset over?
*Is it worth upsetting others?
*Is it that important?
*Is the situation irreparable?
*Is it really my problem?
*Creating opportunities to laugh
*Watch comedy DVD’s and TV shows.
*Go to comedy clubs.
*Listen to comedy while driving.
*Read comic authors.
*Seek out funny people.
*Spend less time with overly serious people.
*Bring humor into conversations. Ask people, “What’s the funniest thing that happened to you today? This week? In your life?”
Making sure your humor won’t offend
Humor can be used as a weapon to belittle others or “score points” in some fashion. Use humor with care by being mindful of the following.
Use humor at the expense of yourself or a group you are part of, rather than at someone’s else’s expense.
Don’t use humor when someone else is in so much pain that humor will not make them feel better. When someone is physically injured, suffering a serious crisis, or when you are attending a somber event, such as a funeral, humor, no matter how clever or well-intended, will not make people feel better.
Use humor that everyone present can enjoy. Inside jokes can make people feel excluded. Adult humor in the presence of children is unhealthy for the children, troublesome for their parents or guardians and thoughtless on the part of the would-be comedian."

Like I wrote before laughter is a priceless cure. So do yourself a favor and start laughing, you will be happier, feel better, and live longer!

The Power of Laughter (Part 2)
Humor improves mental and emotional health
"Humor is a powerful emotional medicine that can lower stress, dissolve anger and unite families in troubled times. Mood is elevated by striving to find humor in difficult and frustrating situations. Laughing at ourselves and the situation helps reveal that small things are not the earth-shaking events they sometimes seem to be. Looking at a problem from a different perspective can make it seem less formidable and provide opportunities for greater objectivity and insight. Humor also helps us avoid loneliness by connecting with others who are attracted to genuine cheerfulness. And the good feeling that we get when we laugh can remain with us as an internal experience even after the laughter subsides.
Mental health professionals point out that humor can also teach perspective by helping patients to see reality rather than the distortion that supports their distress. Humor shifts the ways in which we think, and distress is greatly associated with the way we think. It is not situations that generate our stress, it is the meaning we place on the situations. Humor adjusts the meaning of an event so that it is not so overwhelming.
Here are some additional things we can do to improve our mood, enjoyment of life and mental health.
*Attempt to laugh at situations rather than bemoan them – this helps improve our disposition and the disposition of those around us.
*Use cathartic laughter to release pent-up feelings of anger and frustration in socially acceptable ways.
*Laugh as a means of reducing tension because laughter is often followed by a state of relaxation.
*Lower anxiety by visualizing a humorous situation to replace the view of an anxiety-producing situation
Humor helps us stay emotionally healthy
A healthy sense of humor is related to being able to laugh at oneself and one's life. Laughing at oneself can be a way of accepting and respecting oneself. Lack of a sense of humor is directly related to lower self esteem. (Note that laughing at oneself can also be unhealthy if one laughs as a way of self degradation.)
Mental Health Benefits of Laughter
*Humor enhances our ability to affiliate or connect with others.
*Humor helps us replace distressing emotions with pleasurable feelings. You cannot feel angry, depressed, anxious, guilty, or resentful and experience humor at the same time.
*Lacking humor will cause one's thought processes to stagnate leading to increased distress.
*Humor changes behavior – when we experience humor we talk more, make more eye contact with others, touch others, etc.
*Humor increases energy, and with increased energy we may perform activities that we might otherwise avoid.
*Finally, humor is good for mental health because it makes us feel good!
Social benefits of humor and laughter
Our work, marriage and family all need humor, celebrations, play and ritual as much as record-keeping and problem-solving. We should ask the questions "Do we laugh together?" as well as "Can we get through this hardship together?" Humor binds us together, lightens our burdens and helps us keep things in perspective. One of the things that saps our energy is the time, focus and effort we put into coping with life's problems including each other's limitations. Our families, our friends and our neighbors are not perfect and neither are our marriages, our kids or our in-laws. When we laugh together, it can bind us closer together instead of pulling us apart.
Remember that even in the most difficult of times, a laugh, or even simply a smile, can go a long way in helping us feel better.
*Laughter is the shortest distance between two people.
*Humor unites us, especially when we laugh together.
*Laughter heals.
*Laughs and smiles are enjoyed best when shared with others.
*To laugh or not to laugh is your choice.
*Bringing more humor and laughter into our lives
*If laughter is the best medicine, where is the pharmacy where we can fill our prescriptions?
Developing our sense of humor
Laughter is a birthright, a natural part of life. The part of the brain that connects to and facilitates laughter is among the first parts of the nervous system to come on line after birth. Infants begin smiling during the first weeks of life and laugh out loud within months of being born. Even if you did not grow up in a household where laughter was a common sound, you can learn to laugh at any stage of life.
We may begin by setting aside special times to seek out humor and laughter, as we do with working out. But eventually, we want to incorporate humor and laughter into the fabric of our lives, finding it naturally in everything we do. Here are ways to start.
*Smile
Smiling is the beginning of laughter. Like laughter, it’s contagious. Pioneers in “laugh therapy,” find it’s possible to laugh without even experiencing a funny event. The same holds for smiling. When you look at someone or see something even mildly pleasing, practice smiling.
*Count your blessings.
Literally make a list. The simple act of considering the good things in your life will distance you from negative thoughts that are a barrier to humor and laughter. When in a state of sadness, we have further to travel to get to humor and laughter.
When you hear laughter, move toward it. Sometimes humor and laughter are private, a shared joke among a small group, but usually not. More often, people are very happy to share something funny because it gives them an opportunity to laugh again and feed off the humor you find in it. When you hear laughter, seek it out and ask, “What’s funny?”
*Spend time with people who have successfully incorporated humor into their lives. These are people who naturally take life lightly, who routinely find ordinary events hysterical. Their points of view and their laughter are contagious."

Incorporating humor into everyday life
I went to the the dialysis center in Philadelphia the other day, my mother came along. I like her to drive because going to the hospital/doctors always tires me out. Anyway I had to get blood drawn, which is not always the easiest thing with me because I have small veins. Well this time wasn't any different, but I was in a good mood. I was laughing and joking around with the nurses, while the nurse was trying to take my blood. She ended up sticking me 5 times and finally got some blood on that last stick. I was fine with it, but my mother wasn't she was pretty grumpy, she didn't like me getting stuck that many times. I told her to lighten up, they are just doing their job! I eventually cheered her up. :)
"Spending time with children is one way to enhance our playfulness, add humor to our lives and help take ourselves less seriously. Not taking ourselves so seriously is an important component in adding humor to our lives."
http://helpguide.org/life/humor_laughter_health.htm
I love hanging out with my niece, Jenna. She is filled with so much energy! She just keeps going. She loves singing,music, dancing, playing, she just knows how to have a good time! I can act as silly as I want when I hang around her. After a day with her I need a nap! *laughs*

The Power of Laughter
"The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. Humor and laughter can cause a domino effect of joy and amusement, as well as set off a number of positive physical effects. Humor and laughter strengthen our immune systems and help us recover from illness, as well as bring joy into our lives. The question is, how do we gain access to this priceless medicine?
Health benefits of humor and laughter
Laughter activates the chemistry of the will to live and increases our capacity to fight disease. Laughing relaxes the body and reduces problems associated with high blood pressure, strokes, arthritis, and ulcers. Some research suggests that laughter may also reduce the risk of heart disease. Historically, research has shown that distressing emotions (depression, anger, anxiety, and stress) are all related to heart disease. A study done at the University of Maryland Medical Center suggests that a good sense of humor and the ability to laugh at stressful situations helps mitigate the damaging physical effects of distressing emotions.
Medicine From Henny Youngman:
"Doctor I have a ringing in my ears." "Don't answer!"
The Doctor says "You'll live to be 60!" "I AM 60!" "See, what did I tell you?"
From Steven Wright:
“If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.”
“Smoking cures weight problems, eventually”.
“If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.”
A good hearty laugh can help:
• reduce stress
• lower blood pressure
• elevate mood
• boost immune system
• improve brain functioning
• protect the heart
• connect you to others
• foster instant relaxation
• make you feel good.
Laughter lowers blood pressure. People who laugh heartily on a regular basis have lower standing blood pressure than the average person. When people have a good laugh, initially the blood pressure increases, but then it decreases to levels below normal. Breathing then becomes deeper which sends oxygen enriched blood and nutrients throughout the body.
Humor changes our biochemical state. Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases infection fighting antibodies. It increases our attentiveness, heart rate, and pulse.
Laughter protects the heart. Laughter, along with an active sense of humor, may help protect you against a heart attack, according to the study at the University of Maryland Medical Center (cited above). The study, which is the first to indicate that laughter may help prevent heart disease, found that people with heart disease were 40 percent less likely to laugh in a variety of situations compared to people of the same age without heart disease.
Laughter gives our bodies a good workout. Laughter can be a great workout for your diaphragm, abdominal, respiratory, facial, leg, and back muscles. It massages abdominal organs, tones intestinal functioning, and strengthens the muscles that hold the abdominal organs in place. Not only does laughter give your midsection a workout, it can benefit digestion and absorption functioning as well. It is estimated that hearty laughter can burn calories equivalent to several minutes on the rowing machine or the exercise bike.
Humor improves brain function and relieves stress. Laughter stimulates both sides of the brain to enhance learning. It eases muscle tension and psychological stress, which keeps the brain alert and allows people to retain more information."

This article proves that laughter is a priceless cure. So do yourself a favor and start laughing, you will be happier, feel better, and live longer!
Ever laugh so hard it hurt you? Like your chest cavity felt like it was in a big knot? Even though your body is uncomfortable, you still feel great! I try to laugh as much as I can, I just love laughing! I think my sense of humor is what has gotten me through alot of the stuff I have been through! Sometimes you just have to laugh! Just laugh it off, laugh until you cry!

You Never Let Go
Since I have been listening to Pandora Radio(http://www.pandora.com/), I have been listening to alot of praise music. One of the songs, I heard and liked so much, I wanted to share it with you all!
Matt Redman You Never Let Go Lyrics
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I’m caught in the middle
of the storms of this life
I won’t turn back
I know You are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Chorus:
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming
for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We’ll live to know You here on the earth
Picture is from http://www.christart.com/
Chorus:
Yes, I can see a light that is coming
for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You,
still I will praise You!

The 700 Club and TBN
There is so much garbage on television! Filled with death, murders, fires, wars, lies, gossip, perversion, and chaos, the list goes on. So much negativity, no wonder people are so depressed now a days. You are being brain washed this way. All those negative things will eventually bring you down and swallow you up. If you want to watch something that will give you hope, motivation, strength, and pure joy than tune into the 700 Club! It is the flagship news talk show of the Christian Broadcasting Network, airing on cable's ABC Family and in syndication throughout the United States and Canada.! It one of my favorite shows !
"The show presents news stories from Robertson's religious and political perspective, often relating stories to passages from the Bible which are generally followed by commentary from the hosts. Celebrities and other guests are interviewed about religious views. The news segments frequently emphasize eschatology (apocalyptic).
The 700 Club strongly supports Israel, especially in its disagreements with the Palestinians and the U.N. Among its frequent Jewish guests are Michael Medved and Rabbi Daniel Lapin, who share its conservative Judeo-Christian beliefs."
700 Club Wikipedia
The overall message of the 700 Club, and TBN is that Jesus Christ is Lord, the lamb of God, that takes away the sins of the world! All you have to do is accept him in your heart, mind and soul, and follow his commandments to the best of your ability and you shall have eternal life!
