Live, Love, Laugh

It's a little cliche and overused but I see a lot of plaques and framed posters with this saying. Mostly they pop up at Kirklands, which is one of those stores I frequent more than others. I am not a shopper by any stretch. Shopping and I have never gotten along. But I actually bought a framed piece of art with that saying and it hangs in my bathroom - I like art in the bathroom. There's something about hanging a pretty picture there that takes the clinical feeling out of the place. And there's something about that phrase that I like. It is so positive. It feels warm. It makes me smile. I think about how much life I've seen and think I'm only half way along and certainly haven't seen as much as I'd like. I think about the people I've loved throughout my life. There are many. Some I remember and some I don't. And the people in my life that I've loved are they type who make me laugh. We need humor in our lives as much as we need art in the bathroom.
