The world loves a joker!

He who makes others laugh is welcomed in most companies. This observation is true in most instances. I know of people who score low marks in the looks department, who has no great achievements to their names and who lives in very humble surroundings, and yet they are greeted with great enthusiasm by most people they meet.
The reason is because they bring laughter wherever they appear. Most friends and strangers too love their company. People like being around those who can make them laugh.
Honestly, some people have a natural ability to do that. It could be the way they change their facial appearances. It could be their special ability to tell a joke that brings out the fun of the situation. Whatever it is their secret, the magic spell they spin all the time is spontaneous laughter when they talk, make comments or deliver a retort.
Laughter and fun are twin brothers of good company. Sad is the man who sees the dark side of things. They are the people who walk under dark clouds which circle around them all the time. People around them can sense such things. Hence, these gloomy folks tend to get shunned by others.
If you don't have a sense of humour, then quickly learn to develop one, because you will be dead or wish you were dead after a while. It's no fun being around a wet blanket. Who wants to be a sourpuss?
It is absolutely joyless to be in the company of a person who talks constantly of failure, sorrow and pity. Many of us are already trying to climb out of that pit, so why dive into another one?
Be crazy if you can, not insane though. That's dangerous. There are places for deranged people, but crazy in jest. If you catch my drift. Don't be a doom-sayer. If you were to visit the sick in the hospital, for goodness sake, don't act or behave as if the patient is going to die any minute.
Cheer him or her up. You are supposed to make that guy in bed feel good, not trying to console him for breaking his legs in an accident due to his own carelessness. Of course it was his fault, but you are not the judge and jury of his life. You are supposed to be the life of the party.
Be cheerful, be funny and be hysterical. That's your duty. So you are not a millionaire yet, you are in good company because many of us share your sentiments. But the funny people never really need that extra dough because his good friends who are laughing with him are paying the bills on most occasions.
Just think of that, if you are a millionaire, most of the time, your friends or guests expect you to pick up the tab. Now, if you bring laughter and joy to others, paying the bill is the least of your worries.
Laugh, my friend. Laugh. It is one of the greatest secrets to longevity.
