Hi (((FMly)),
I think that's my best way to fight the pain! (well, that,
visiualization & my methadone!) I was glad to see that tcm (movie
channel) had a Marx Bros. movie day today! God, they were so
incredibly talented! I always loved Harpo most. OMG, those faces he
made & all of their talents in music. ah.

Well, it just reminded me that when we use humor in any form it's
helpful. Releasing the so-called internal painkillers
good thing!
Kindly,

I sometimes think a sense of humour is almost a curse as a coping
mechanism. lol Being tested with all the might of sadistic gods!
finding moments you just have to laugh it all right back. Laughing in
the face of these pains or just laughing at our daily opera is great
medicine for me anyways. I keep getting told I should expect to fall
into depression. I say we have every right to be depressed but, not be
driven in to it. Laughter is my favorite medication.
