Send in the Clowns

There has been an unusual uptick in stress levels at the Shulam house.

There are many new situations to process. Don't worry- this stress is not all bad. Stress is a part of life.


How do Barry and I handle stressful situations? We find a way to LAUGH. Laughter releases serotonin, the natural pick-me-up our bodies contain. We listen to comedy on the radio. We watch funny TV or movies. This isn't a final solution to any problem, but it provides temporary relief.


The Bible tells us that laughter is healthy. Here are two verses that teach this:


  1. Proverbs 17:22: “A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.”

  2. Ecclesiastes 8:15: “So I recommend having fun because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way, they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun.”


Ecclesiastes 8:15 tells us God gives us hard work, but He has also given us an outlet for relief.

Go out and find some joy today!!!
