They are my ultimate source of entertainment and joy in life, I like a person who has a great sense of humour and can find humour in tragedies, The self deprecation jokes I make IRL to make ppl laugh gives me thrills, I spent hours coming up with jokes to tell my family and few friends, I get thrill in making people laugh, i have realized that i am more happy when people around me are happy, I wish I could be a comedian or at least a comedy writer. The following excerpt is from a poem by Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu, it explains the state most of us are in,
People are cheerful as if they were invited to a great feast ,
And climbed on the view-tower in the Spring.
On the contrary, I alone am away from such spree,
And am cheerless, like a baby who has not yet learned to smile,
I am dreary , not knowing where to go like a homeless dog.
My mind is like a fool’s and it seems ignorant.
Other people show off their cleverness, while I alone appears dumb.
Others are clear and smart, while I alone looks uncertain,
As if the ocean wave were drifting,
And as if the restless wind blew without direction.
Others are competent, while I alone appears stubborn and lost.
I alone unique, holding dearly onto the great Mother Earth
