If there is no laughter, life is bland and saturated. This is where the role of humor becomes very important because with humor, laughter will come out of us more easily.
There are two types of humor itself, namely deliberate humor because it is done by someone to invite laughter and accidental humor in the form of funny events that occur.
Whatever type of humor it is, laughing and feeling happy is the key. Coloring life with humor can bring many positive things in our lives. What are some of them? Here is the review as reported by IDN Times!
1. Become healthier
According to several scientific studies, laughter is known to have many positive effects on health such as lowering blood pressure, improving heart function, activating T cells (immune cells), and triggering the secretion of endorphins which can reduce pain.
A study from the Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine also states that laughter is a powerful remedy for various mental illnesses such as depression and stress. Laughter is also widely associated with a person’s life span, the more often laughter the higher the life expectancy of a person.
2. Friends become more
By laughing often and making other people laugh, you will give off a positive aura around you. This will make other people feel comfortable and happy to be around you so that the friendship environment will easily increase.
Not only that, laughter can dilute the initially awkward atmosphere to be more fun and make us more familiar with each other. You can also get closer to someone you just met by knowing what that person likes and looking for the right humor. This way, it’s guaranteed that people will be comfortable with you.
3. Increase solidarity
Relationships with friends, girlfriends and family must be very meaningful and filled with high solidarity. However, do you know that laughing together is the most powerful way to increase this solidarity.
By laughing together, our hearts will become close and that is where the friendship, love, and kinship that sticks will emerge. By laughing, the distance that was long will shorten instantly and make each other more open and a sense of mutual care will emerge.
4. Meet your destiny partner
“Do not know, then do not love”, that sentence means that before continuing the relationship in a more serious direction, you must understand each other better. Again, laughing together can be a way you can use it to get closer and get to know the people you like.
You just need to find your match so you can find a humorous topic that suits you. That way, you can fill the days with your lover with fun every day. Why? Because laughter makes life more colorful and fun.
5. Eliminate differences
We live with a wide variety of people who differ in terms of race, religion and ethnicity. However, nothing could stop the beauty of laughing together. By finding things that are fun and laughing at them together, we will forget all the differences.
For Indonesia, which currently has many racial and religious issues, laughter can be a solution that unites us all. It is no wonder that work as a comedian is very popular in Indonesia, because in fact everyone longs for unity and peace.
So, those are five positive things you can get from laughing. There are lots of benefits that you can take and of course bring happiness. As the phrase from one of the famous Warkop films, “Laughter before laughter is forbidden”. So start filling your life with more laughter and happiness. (Red)
