    If this were true, slaves would overcome their oppression with jokes rather than force? I think not. Anger is often necessary for progress.

    Because in this world there is a lot of injustice. It is hard to laugh when people are hurting. But I agree that we should all laugh more. Anger is a disease? I guess in the way that it will eventually make us sick, so laughter is healthy for us.

    I think that makes a lot of sense Lulu'sMom. I think happy people probably live longer too. Thank you for your reply and Happy Wednesday! :)
