“He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at.” ~Epictetus
It is all right to not take things so seriously all the time. It is all right to laugh at ourselves. When we laugh at our foibles, we are more accepting, we like ourselves, and we have freed ourselves from ourselves. Freedom is the recognition that we can allow ourselves to be and feel like ourselves, in order words, we can feel comfortable in our own skin. We all have experienced uncertainties, vulnerabilities, and exposure. These things make us uneasy. However, it is good to experience these things in our lives so we know what we’re about. It is about how we deal with uncertainties, vulnerabilities and exposure that’s important. And laughter is one way of dealing.
