Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.

Day 233: Humor

There has been a lot written lately about Robin Williams. Actually, there has been a lot written about his roles, his struggles, and his end. I am watching "Inside the Actor's Studio" with Robin Williams right now, and having a hard time keeping a straight face.

Robin Williams was an amazing talent. Listening to him and watching him is a gift. His talent is one-of-a-kind.

I am grateful that I have experienced his sense of humor. In the same sense, I am even more grateful to have been raised in a home that was always filled with laughter. My Dad had an amazing sense of humor, and his ability to think on his feet and tell "stories" created memories I am blessed to have.

They talked on the show about whether humor is genetic, or if it can be taught. I certainly hope that at least some of my Dad's humor has reached me, and will reach my own children someday.
