World Laughter Day!!

Every Year in May , the first Sunday is celebrated as - WORLD LAUGHTER DAY around the world . 

To my surprise and may be to many of you readers , this moment was started by , Dr. Madan Kataria , Founder of World wide Laughter Yoga moment , in Mumbai in 1998 .

But the question arises do we need a laughter day? Isin`t laughter should be a part of our every day life style .In our busy life styles we have some where forgot the art of relaxing and laughing . 

There is too much competition around . Be it Kids whose parents are after them to excel and succeed and when they come to the teen age this pressure gets higher to score good marks in boards , get admission in a good college be it technical , medical or even normal. 

And then continues the story as the kid grows up it leads to getting a good job earning more money from parents and if you have achieved a good job then off course you should have a good Girlfriend or Boyfriend which continues in search of an excellent life partner. 

All this becomes too complicating and after some time this vicious cycle starts again .

               

In the corporate world there is a never ending competition . One has to balance between performance and office politics to survive and keep on earning that handsome amount and maintain the good job all through their life .

There's a lot of stress and in our day to day routines we forget to Laugh , Rest and Relax . it should be our choice to stop for a while and admire little things happening around us . It is our choice which button on the Key Board we want to click .

I am reminded , of an article written by Mr. Narayan Murthy , Chairman , Infosys , who in all his speeches to his employees makes a point to tell them to leave office on time . He believes the best work by an employee can be done only in his office hours . 

He also emphasizes to the employees that beyond office , they should have a good social life and family life. This helps the employees  to be healthy and happy . He believes a Happy and healthy employee will perform much better in his normal office time than an employee who stays back and works late in the office.

To have a laugh , it does not means that one has to tell or listen to jokes all the time. one can just laugh on the smallest things happening around us. When we laugh there is a spiritual opening that connects us to the universe .

On this World Laughter day lets promise to our selves that every day will be Laughter day for each one of us !!
