Hi Elly!
Yes...get out those comedies!! All of your cells will tingle and revitalize - come alive!
I remember reading once that a very interesting test was made...Actors were told to feel Anger, Sadness, Joy...and maybe a few other emotions. Anger and Sadness are usually put into the 'negative' category and we think that only FEELING 'good' things is the best for us.
Well! They took blood samples of the actors before and after they did this emoting exercise. This study found that (good actors are actually able to really BE the emotion) their white blood cells (fighters) went WAY up after they emoted ANY of the emotions!! Intense Anger brought their blood count up (and immune system) and so did happiness and joy and even tears!
The outcome seems to be that as long as we are FEELING something...and releasing that emotion...it's all good! Cool eh? I mean...if we're not feeling then we're not alive anyway right? So....FEEL FEEL FEEL! Get it all out!
I'm in a bit of a rush so this post isn't as in depth as it could be - but when I read your post saying that you had to get out the comedies I thought: AH! She HAS to watch the video I saw last night on David Letterman! Oh my god...I was in absolute hysterics! It's a real video...but there's been a lot of controversy over it - it's pretty funny. The White house said it was 'fake' and CNN reported that....oh it's complex - but funny nonetheless!
Thought you might find it funny too!
I had to put it up on my site - because the only site I could find this clip on was a porno site! Couldn't post that - jeez.
Enjoy!
love T
*oh yeah....I'll post more about this laughter, play, stuff...remember your children dreams? Telling you to be the Divine child more? Laugh, play, creativity...all that? I want to check where you have Blue Monkey!*
