HUMOUR...
A sense of humour can defuse a bad situation, allowing people to keep a sense of pride in who they are and what they do.
Years ago, Bishop Fulton Sheen was a great speaker on TV. His talks had depth, yet alway began with humour...
He said, one day a mother was removing her crying child from the audience who had come to hear him speak... 'Dear lady, no need to remove your child. The crying doesn't bother me...' The mother replied, 'It's your voice that bothers the child.' In this way, with humour, he allowed the audience to laugh at him and with him..
Humour and humility could well be linked together. By using the sense of the rediculous we give freedom to others to laugh at us, more especially to laugh with us!.
The ability to be light-hearted and not too serious in our endeavours, allows others, not to be afraid, and listen to what we have to say, This humble attitude gives power to our words and actions, and builds friendships.
With good humour we can conquer the World!
