I take laughter for granted
Heartfulness eMagazine
|December 2021
MAMATA VENKAT looks back over the last year, which has been full of tragedy, and finds the moments of light and laughter that bring joy and celebration to life.
Here are a few statistics I recently heard on an episode of the Hidden Brain podcast:
On average, children laugh 300 times a day.
It takes adults two and a half months to laugh as much.
Adults stop laughing around the age of 23, once they reach working age.
I’m an adult (theoretically). I laugh a lot, don’t I? I think I do. I think I laugh many times a day.
Actually, I don’t.
What is stopping me from laughing more?
And why does it take difficult moments to realize how much we take joy, laughter, love, and people for granted?
