p m e d for joy lately? Have you j u Started a laugh riot with a friend? Woofed
it up with your dog? If you’ve forgotten
Your Laugh Lines, it might be time to play the Fool. Going
a little Gaga is a good thing—choose
impossible shoes. People will smile at
your style. If you fall down in public, get
up laughing. Dance in the spice aisle to
the supermarket soundtrack. Arm wrestle
for the check. Make dessert an occasion
to celebrate instead of an orgy of regret.
Create an alter-ego name to use at Starbucks.
Be ticklish. Practice being amazed instead of glazed
over. Text “I love your laugh” to a friend.
Collaborate—it’s another way to play.
Experiment, even if it blows up in your face.
Smile, it’s a renewable resource. Cover copy by Nikki Hardin, art by Julia Breckenreid
