人生不总是一帆风顺,难免会遇到起伏。虽然有些事情会让你感到悲伤难过、心烦意乱,但不妨幽默一把,调侃生活中的不如意。
 
Sometimes life doesn't seem to play fair. It blindsides you at the most inopportune moments, and even if we can learn to grin and bear the ups and downs, they can take their toll1 on our psyche2. So rather than suffer in silence or let these things get you down, maybe there is another way: what if humour can help you get through the dark times?
 
According to author and clinician Kristen Lee: “Laughter and tears are both therapeutic3 – we need both to process such hard times.” But how can we find the tough things that happen funny? Our lives are really serious, often filled with mundane4 and repetitive activities, whether it's arbitrary bill paying or fighting for a seat on your commute5, we need to make time for fun and play – enjoy the little things. Why not make funny noises to remind you to stop taking things seriously, or learn some silly jokes, just to tell when times get hard? They could make you or other people around you laugh!
 
When a hurdle6 pops up in life, it's easy to get bogged7 down – but the way we recount events can impact on our resilience. Rather than see the negatives, look for the ironic8 moments and tell people about them! Why not write parodies9 in your spare time about events that take place to help you compartmentalise? Script what happened as if it was happening to a character rather than yourself.
 
We all know that some things in life aren't fair. But take those events and send them up a bit in your scripts! Sometimes life needs a bit of a roasting to get your thoughts in order, and embracing your comedic side, seeing life's difficult moments as obstacles that can be made fun of rather than overwhelm you, may help you get through them more easily. And who knows, you may just discover a talent for writing at the end of it.
