Making people laugh is a unique joy, a magical connection that feels so good. Whether on stage with a microphone or in everyday conversations, making people laugh is an art and a gift.

Laughter is a universal language that dissolves barriers and can create bonds for a lifetime. A very funny comedian, Gabriel Iglesias, has named his tour "Unity through laughter." I couldn't agree more.

A well-timed joke is a gift that keeps giving. We all have that power. (maybe some of us more than others:)
