Trying to hold it back, eyes squeezed shut, cheeks red, body shaking laughing

Today was good! Today I had an extra long break at lunch so I chose to go to the library. I took the book I am currently in the middle of (Life of Pie) and found a big comfy chair to keep me warm. I was focused on my page devouring the story with intensity, when it happened I heard laughing. I looked up to see a guy laughing, trying to hold it back, eyes squeezed shut, cheeks red, body shaking laughing. I couldn’t help but smile and laugh too. I like to watch people, especially happy people. My heart was smiling watching this man trying to hold back his joy. I kept watching over the pages of my books (to avoid looking obvious). He seemed so happy, and I was just dying to know what was so funny, but I dare not ask. I started to think about things. Happiness in others lives. It makes me happy to see others happy. He looked so wrapped up in his happiness I couldn’t help but be captivated by him. I left with a bounce in my step, and smile on my face. This man made my day! I realized in those couple of minutes how I so often become wrapped up in my day to day routines without realizing everything so wonderful around me. I realized how important it is to laugh, who cares just let it out laughing. I just couldn’t help but think how great our God is, and how blessed I am. I love the little moments that bring me out of the darkness I sometimes create. I believe laughter can cure ANYTHING!
