Laugh at yourself and at life.
Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity,
but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain,
cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective

thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution
that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.

To others, something amazing, extraordinary, or unexpected.
To me, Life is a miracle.

are all so improbable.
