The Spirituality of Humor and Laughter: Why Good Things Happen To Bad People

A famous quote from Elizabeth Barrett Browning goes:

"Earth's crammed with heaven,

And every common bush afire with God,

But only he who sees takes off his shoes;

The rest sit round and pluck blackberries."

We may also say with her:

Earth's full of humor and laughter,

And every situation afire with meaning,

But only he who sees has reason to laugh;

The rest sit round and weep.

This book is meant to help its readers appreciate God's creation

by seeing the humor and the laughter in it.
