Humor is Light

As I have blogged before, I've had a minor bout with depression a couple of months back. And while I was at it, I kept being sorry for myself for being in that situation. However, it was easy to make me laugh. I don't know why. I took every joke as a situation to make me smile.

So, with that, in one salary day, I went to a bookstore and bought two books from two funny women I look up to. After the first book, I realized, I liked these kinds of book and I forgot how I loved humor.

Books I first bought out of impulse. I did not finish Tina Fey's book though.

I was able to finish Mindy Kaling's "Is Everyone Hanging out without me?" in one sitting (in a salon for the record, while they are fixing my hair). I enjoyed it, it was the same as the book I read before, from Stacy Horn, Waiting for my Cats to die. I remembered how these things remind me of how it is okay to be just me, alone.

So, when there was a booksale, I went for another book - My boyfriend wrote a book about me by Hilary Winston, again, it was an easy read. Now, I am on a roll. This is how I will get over this, this sad thing. I got over my first love by exercising, by doing physical stuff. Now, this. I'm busier than ever.

I have felt alone before, and this is the peak of it. I guess, it's a matter of acceptance and how you put humor in boring situations. If you laugh at your own company, I guess you're gonna be okay.
