| | | "A sense of relationship and copartnership with God involves the
concept of universal brotherhood and that will help to develop intelligent
tolerance, open-mindedness, and good-natured optimism. Life is really a
battle between fear and faith, pessimism and optimism. Fear and pessimism
paralyze men with skepticism and futility. One must have a sense of humor
to be an optimist in times like these. And you young women will need a
sense of humor if you marry these young men and try to live with them.
Golden Kimball once said in a conference, "The Lord Himself must like a
joke or he wouldn"t have made some of you people." But your good humor
must be real, not simulated. Let your smiles come from the heart and they
will become contagious. You may see men on the street any day whose laugh
is only a frozen grin with nothing in it but teeth. Men without humor tend
to forget their source, lose sight of their goal, and with no lubrication
in their mental crankshafts, they must drop out of the race. Lincoln said,
"Good humor is the oxygen of the soul." And someone paraphrased, "The surly
bird catches the germ."" | | | Found in the topic God.
