APAD: Laughter is the best medicine

"Laughter is the best medicine" means that finding humor and having a positive outlook can improve your mood and well-being, similar to how medicine improves physical health.

The origin of "laughter is the best medicine" is the Bible, Proverbs 17:22 "A merry heart doeth good like medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones".

Robert Browning (1812 – 1889), an English poet and playwright, once said: “Without love, our earth is a tomb".

I would like to add: Without humor, our world will be bored to death!

So, my friends, it's about the time to have a round of fun riddles  

- What two things can you never eat for breakfast?
Answer: Lunch and dinner.

- What grows when you feed it but dies when you water it?
Answer: A fire.

- What’s always on the ground but is never dirty.
Answer: A shadow.

- What can fill a room but takes up no space?
Answer: Light.

As usual, the last one is from 西岛:

- What's the most beautiful clothes in the world?
Answer:  A birthday suit 

Here are two pics to prove my point:

1. See how beautiful Maowi is in his birthday suit?  He knows that so well that he refuses to wear anything else 

2. A drawing I did in a class with a live model. IMHO, women's body curves (ie birthday suit) is a beautiful piece of art created by "God"  (note: two hours was too short for me to finish the drawing, so the lady has to sit on the air )
