MORNING MUSING
They say laughter is the best medicine — there’s a certain wisdom to that. I was reminded of that as we laid my former mother-in-law to rest on Thursday. Both the pastor who conducted the ceremony and my daughter, who delivered the eulogy, remarked on her love of laughter – even when things weren’t necessarily funny. She had an infectious laugh, and I will hear it always when I think of her. Think of the people you know. What are their funny quirks? What are the things about them that make you smile and that you’ll carry in your heart always, even when they’re no longer here? Take a moment to appreciate those things while they still are.
