There are so many emotions that affect healing in the body and soul. Love, faith, gratitude, etc. I am just curious how many of you have ever felt what I am about to describe.
Several times throughout my life (with cousins, with friends, with a lover) I have experienced uncontrollable laughter where, literally, if someone held a gun to my head and said, "Stop laughing!" I would not have been able to. I know this because these periods of uncontrollable laughter are normally at times where I really ache to stop laughing because I know it is totally and completely inappropriate or at least not desired in the particular situation.
First of all, I want to emphasize that this laughter doesn't occur because something is really funny. Normally, nothing funny has happened. But, all of a sudden, the two of us have tears rolling down our cheeks, we are doubled over, and gutteral sounds are coming out of us that are primal. If someone comes up and says, "Are you guys OK?," it just makes the laughter worse.
The laughter is so intense that it is physically painful. Every abdominal muscle hurts horribly and you pray to stop laughing but you can't stop. No matter how bad it hurts or how inappropriate the place, you just laugh harder and harder.
But when it is over, I feel like every cell in my body has laughed and been healed. It is quite an amazing experience. So, have you guys ever laughed like this? If not, I wish I could tell you how to bring it on. Shoot, I wish I knew how to bring it on and then I would do it everyday at will. It is that healing.
