laugh

it had been a looong time,
since i laughed,
i mean really laughed,
the "freeing kind" of laughter,
when for that moment,
problems vanished....
troubles were forgotten,
no care in the world,
all i felt was J-O-Y,
i threw my head back,
smiled a huge grin,
and enjoyed side-splitting laughter,
{the kind that leaves your stomach aching}
i caught myself
looking in the side view mirror for a glimpse
i hadn't seen the sight or felt that in too long.
even Chris noticed.

it felt wonderful.
do you know what i'm talking about?

  2. i thought about you tonight and this post - b/c although I didn't laugh, i had one of those silent screams, hand over mouth, can't believe it's true, excited, thankful moments!

    an amazing feeling just like yours - where all the negative seems to melt away and a ray of sunshine fills the moment. :D
