Sometimes You Just Have to Laugh!

Have you ever done something embarrassing? I have! But I've learned that sometimes the best thing to do is just laugh at yourself. And I mean REALLY laugh! It's good for the soul, and those endorphins don't hurt either!

A few years back when Kelly and I were out of town for work, and I had tossed a pair of casual shoes into my bag. We had decided after work to go for a walk.  I put my other shoes on and we went on our merry way.

One was denim, and the other was black and white. They certainly didn't look like they belonged together, but they felt the same on my feet, and I never noticed the difference!

I actually wore them for a while before I realized they didn't match! When I finally looked down and discovered my mistake, I had to laugh and shake my head!

But of course, I have entertained myself many more times before and since then.

Years ago, I was walking along a sidewalk beside a busy road when I stumbled and fell. It would have been pretty hard for anyone passing by to miss it!

So, what did I do? I tried to gently roll through the fall, stood up, and raised both hands in the air, as if the judges were holding up their scorecards. I gave myself a 10!

I don't know whether anyone was watching, but if they were, I hope I gave them a good laugh. I certainly gave myself one!

Then, just the other day, I took off one outfit and put on another. I turned to the first outfit and apologized because it hadn't made the cut that day. Who does that? Apparently, I do! I always try to give emotional support where needed. 😂

I should pay a little more attention to what I'm doing, but where's the fun in being serious all the time? Life is full of little mishaps, and sometimes we're the ones providing the entertainment! So the next time you do something embarrassing, don't be too hard on yourself. Give yourself a 10, laugh out loud, and enjoy the moment!
