We are just over halfway finished with the glorious year that has been 2020. JK. We don’t mean to gloss over the loss, anger, hope and anxiety of this year, but laughter can help us keep going — and give us a break.
Laugh as much as possible, always laugh. It’s the sweetest thing one can do for oneself & one’s fellow human beings ~Maya Angelou
