Thank you so much for shining a spotlight on this topic. It is a message so many people need to hear. From my experience in working with people who have experienced grief, heartbreak and trauma, the more I can inject humor in some small way, it helps to connect them back to the world of the living. For myself the more I descend into their world of despair to be present with them, the more I must repair my psyche with joy and sheer silliness. Life is full of suffering and great flights of ecstatic joy. Why not tune the dial to the fun broadcast when we can?
