As old as I am there are moments when I am no more than a child at heart.
Today I convinced some of my co-workers to help me inflate approximately 50 balloons to put in our boss' office so when he returned from his meeting, he would have to wade through them to get to his desk. When the moment of truth arrived, I just listened. It was so satisfying to hear him laugh out loud when he opened his office door. I know, it was a silly, non-professional thing to do but honestly, it was so much fun.
Which brings me to my question. When was the last time you made someone laugh or for that matter, the last time someone made you laugh?
Take a second and think about it, if I was a betting woman I would bet you just smiled, maybe even laughed, guess what, that is what makes it worthwhile.
As we get older, we have so many reasons not to laugh, so many things that consume our time and steal our joy but if we choose to purposefully create memorable and joyous moments, for ourselves and those around us, nothing, not even time can steal them from us.
I hope you had a laugh out loud moment today.
