The road to becoming a better person: Making people laugh (in the attempt to)

One of the things I wanted but do not have,
is the ability to make people laugh.
Though, I do very well in making fun of people.(Sometimes)
Both them and their jokes.

I can take jokes, but I just can't tell them.
Instead of laughing at the joke,
my friends usually laugh at me or the awkward silent when I expect them to laugh.
Or even worse, they'll laugh when I make a serious comment.
Which to them, seems very funny.
I wonder why.

So I always thought that I am a boring person, serious type.
And I truly think that I write better than I speak.


I have deep respect of those who have this gifting.
Bringing a smile onto someone, cheering them up.
It's a great way to bond too, it helps breaking ice easier.
I find that people who have this talent is far more approachable and friendly than any other personality types.
Yes, I want to be like that too.

So, I downloaded some Jokes app to learn some new jokes.
Since, I am such a serious person,
I shall seriously try to be a more cheery person.
(Though I don't think I'm much of a serious person too,
more often than not, I'll be at rainbow-candy-la-la-land.)


And I am not saying being serious is not good.
I like being serious, and there are many situations that calls for that too.
Just that, in my opinion, people would relax faster with a new friend
who is smiling and good at cracking everybody up,
instead of a straight-laced stone-faced person.
And I do want to have things to say to fill up awkward silents here and there,
to new friends, or old friends I met on the bus.


Well, I shall share some jokes with you!

 Walking home after a Halloween party, two young men decided to take a shortcut through the cemetery for a thrill. They both stopped abruptly when they heard a mysterious tap-tap-tapping noise in the shadows. Their eyes grew large until the mist cleared and they saw an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping at one of the headstones. 'Geez, mister!' one of them exclaimed. 'You scared us half to death! We thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working here so late at night?' The old man replied angrily, 'Those darn fools misspelled my name!'

 A college physics professor was explaining a particularly complicated concept to his class when a pre-med student interrupted him. 'Why do we have to learn this stuff?' one young man blurted out. 'To save lives,' the professor responded before continuing the lecture. A few minutes later the student spoke up again. 'So how does physics save lives?' The professor stared at the student for a long time without saying a word. Finally the professor continued. 'Physics saves lives,' he said, 'because it keeps certain people out of medical school.'

 A man approached a very beautiful woman in a large supermarket and asked, 'You know, I've lost my wife here in the supermarket. Can you talk to me for a couple of minutes?' "Why?" 'Because every time I talk to a beautiful woman my wife appears out of nowhere.'

LOL!
I still have to work on it...
Jiayou!

And God bless!

God has no Favorite

My life has been blessed by God.
I think I grew up well.
I think God grown me up well.
(And I feel like a plant now)

I am quite a self-absorbed person,
often living in my own little world.
Personally, I think that I love myself too much to the point that it is disgusting.
But God still loves me, for who I am.
Just as how God loves the rest of humanity.


God has no favorite.

You may have constantly obey God, living life for Him, making him happy.
Well Done! God loves you.
But it does not make Him love you any more than He already has.
Because He loves you so much that it is the greatest and there is no greater love.

You might still be living in Sin.
God hates sin but he loves sinners.
He loves us so much that he created us in his own image and give us our own will.
Whatever you do wrong or don't do right, does not make Him love you less.
Because His love covers a multitude of sin.



In God's eyes, you are not better than the rest of the world.
Not your education or knowledge will put you in a higher position to God.
So always humble yourself and allow God to do lead you.
And give back the glory to God.

Nor are you any worst than others.
No matter if you are poor or have the suckiest job will make any difference to God.

Our God is not so shallow.
He don't see only from our outside shell,
He looks at our heart attitudes.

God is the one who gives us what we have.
How wealthy and successful we should become,
how pretty or handsome we look,
how talented we are,
what kind of family we were born to.
the education we get,
So if God were to judge on these things,
He would be judging Himself.

Instead, God made us in His image and give us free will.
And His judgement is based on our hearts.
If God were to make us in his image and make us obey him whether we liked it or not,
We would just be puppets He made and God will still be judging Himself.


Out of love, God created us.
Out of love, He give us free will to live our lives.
Out of love, He always have a plan for us and wants the best for us.
And the best plan for us is customized,
His plans are designed for each and every person differently,
and they are unique.

There is no point in envying someone else,
Because His best plans for others might not be His best plan for you.
And don't worry, our God is not a forgetful God.
He leaves no one out.


Thank you God for your endless love.
I pray that You'll let your will be done and grow me as You deem fit.
I also pray that You will always remind us to not focus on what we don't have,
but put our focus on what You have already blessed us with.
I pray that You'll help us to not judge based on our differences,
but recognized that your love for each one of us is deeper than oceans and higher than the mountains,
and help us love each one another just as You have loved us.

Thank you Heavenly Father, in your might name,
Amen!
