Laughter in the rooms...

I am so grateful for AA. The fellowship, wisdom and support it has given me. The new start. The new perspective. The new me.

A year ago I wouldn't have believed how much joy goes on in the AA rooms and fellowship, but that laughter that I hear in there, and even coming from my own mouth, special delivery from my belly, that laughter is the language of the heart (as Mickey B says).

Healing
Enjoyment
And
Recovering
Together

Thank-you God for AA

If anyone needs a smile today, it's worth treating yourself to a listen to this....

Big Book Page 132...

".... So we think cheerfulness and laughter make for usefulness. Outsiders are sometimes shocked when we burst into merriment over a seemingly tragic experience out of the past. But why shouldn't we laugh? We have recovered, and have been given the power to help others...."

If you're laughing, you're relating!!

I had forgotten how to laugh. Laughter is just one of the gifts AA has returned to me

Sharon - there's no 'thanks' button on your post. So, 'thanks' and 'hi'.

Wishing you man belly-laughs x
