Laughter heals the soul, or so they say. Humor is defined differently by different people. There is dry humor, cynical humor, slapstick humor, and surely many other ways to define what can make people laugh.
Being a realist, it is hard for my to sit down and watch slapstick or in-you-face comedy- Blazing Saddles, Caddy Shack, Airplane, just don't do it for me.
What is important for a balanced life is to laugh. Laugh at yourself too! For as serious as life is and can be, we all need a little comedic relief.
