Silliness is good for the soul.
I can’t prove that, but I am fairly certain it is a fact of life.
Taking myself too seriously has never particularly paid off and believe me, I have put a lot of effort into it!
Supposing that we are never closer to our soul than when we are born, I am sure that I enjoyed those first three years immensely.
I was certainly silly, laughing until I sometimes cried, giggling over my own bad jokes, repeating the same inane action or words over and over and over – just to see the people around me smile.
Now I realize these same things are not funny when you are three times taller than you used to be and twenty times older; but like everything else, silliness evolves and refines itself with age.
And I need to laugh just as much now as then – maybe more!
