Laughter,how laughter is generated,laughter is the best medicine, two funny stories

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE

WHAT IS LAUGHTER

Have you ever thought about laughter.Why is it granted to man? Why do some laugh and others not?Do those who smile and laugh think that it is beneficial for them or do they just laugh without knowing the meaning? Do most of those who don't laugh think that laughing with others is a shame or insult to them?If it is beneficial what are the benefits? Laughter is a physical response or reaction to a stimulus. What are these stimuli that generate laughter?Who laugh more,male or female? Do culture,age, language, education and gender play roles in generating laughter in humans in given situations?Is laughter contagious and infectious?This is what I have learned.You may know more.If so make me aware. 

HOW LAUGHTER IS  GENERATED

Laughter is generated in various ways.A generator is needed for this.This generator is scientifically called a stimulus. It can be an internal or external stimulus.Tickle is an internal stimulus.When someone tickles you,that is touches or strokes you lightly, it produces laughter.
When you listen to a humorous story and if it is strong enough to stimulate you, then the laughter is produced.That is an external stimulus.When you hear a big sound of laughter around you, your mind ask you to seek for it and join it,and you too laugh. Sometimes hearing alone is enough to generate laughter in you.That is why people say laughter is contagious and infectious. Following is a couple of stories that can generate laughter, read and see whether you would be stimulated.

STORY ONE

Banda was a village lad working in the household of old Mrs.Roslin.He was a total idiot.One day Mrs. Roslin sent him for a twenty five kilogram bag of rice and fellow came back, carrying it on his head.On the way, the bag of rice had torn,falling everything all along the road.Having seen the incident and got angry, Mrs. Roslin cried "Oh Banda you fool what did you do! My money! Why didn't you hire at least a hand -cart to bring the bag of rice? As Banda apologized for the mistake and promised not to repeat such things again and she being sympathetic, Mrs. Roslin furthered him as her servant,tolerating the loss.
Next day, Mrs. Roslin sent him to bring a kilogram of lentil and this time he bought it safely in a cart he had hired,forcing Mrs.Roslin to pay the the fee for the hire.

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE

People say"laughter is the best medicine" It is not just a saying.There is very important message in it.When we are sick we go to doctors spending our money and time seeking relief.But for this magnificent,universal medicine, you don't want to pay.It is free,fun and easy to use.Laughter makes many favorable changes in your body.When you laugh,doctors say,the inside lining of your blood vessels expands and there by increase the blood flow.When we have a good blood flow our body organs and systems function well giving us a good feeling.Next it reduces the amount of stress hormones that leads to diminish stress and tension in your body and mind.Thirdly, when you laugh, your brain releases a biochemical called Endorphins.The function of this is to hinder the transmission of pain signals.So when you laugh it acts as a pain killer.Lastly,when you laugh  it can raise antibody producing cells, and thereby your immune system can be strengthened.  when you have a strong immune system you will not fall sick easily.So what do you say take it or leave it.

STORY TWO

One day a lover went to his girl friends house to talk to her father directly about the marriage.The father who did not like the fellow said
" I don't like to keep her with a donkey like you!
Then the youth replied
"Yes dad,that's why I came here to meet you."

CAN WE HAVE SOCIAL BENEFITS FROM LAUGHTER AND HUMOR

According to my opinion,we can have many social benefits from laughter and humor as well as health benefits.It can join people together , make new relationships.Let's take my workplace for example.When I went to this workplace anew I had few friends,I talked about funny things with one whom I thought to be a good fit as friend.Our funny talks brought us laughter.Soon many joined us. We laugh on the way to the workplace in the train,at tea break and at lunch time.All got together because of the laughter produced by funny  talks shared among us.We were very careful not to neglect our duties.Our relationships strengthened.We work as a team.Our official duties too became successful due to this unofficial laughing society.Among us we don't have conflicts.Conflicts have been defused by laughter.When today's work is over,We are eagerly looking forward to meet tomorrow.
