Hope said "I have seen what a laugh can do. It can transform
almost unbearable tears into something bearable, even hopeful."
I recently had a comedy night event that turned into something quite
different. A gentleman passed away at the bar earlier that day. He
was a regular customer and I had met him on many occasions. That
evening, we were supposed to do our regular comedy show at 7:30.
Instead, I paid the comedians and told them they could stay or go,
but we were not going to tell jokes. Instead, we honored the man who
was there every day, up until his last day. His friends each shared
stories. We played some of his favorite music. We all laughed
together, there were also tears all around, and we let humor do the
healing. It was an unexpected thing, but we use humor for some
healthy healing that night.
