Group Beyond Blue member Budog started a thread at Group Beyond Blue on Beliefnet Community called “The Humor Thread! Everyone Needs a Good Laugh.”
Join the conversation that starts with his post:

Laughter is the best medicine… I would rather laugh at myself than cry, so I thought a thread for appropriate jokes many of us could relate to would be uplifting and cheering. I received this first one from my cousin who loves me…
Grandma & Grandpa’s Road Trip
While on a road trip, an elderly couple stopped at a roadside restaurant for lunch.
After finishing their meal, they left the restaurant and resumed their trip.
When leaving, the elderly woman unknowingly left her glasses on the table and she didn’t miss them until they had been driving about twenty minutes.
By then, to add to the aggravation, they had to travel quite a distance before they could find a place to turn around — in order to return to the restaurant to retrieve her glasses.
All the way back, the elderly husband became the classic grouchy old man.
He fussed and complained and scolded his wife relentlessly during the entire return drive. The more he chided her — the more agitated he became. He just wouldn’t let up one minute.
To her relief, they finally arrived at the restaurant.
As the woman got out of the car and hurried inside to retrieve her glasses, the old geezer yelled to her ….
‘While you’re in there, you might as well get my hat and the credit card.’

Love Deeply ...
Valentine's Day is a good time to remember all the ways we can be loving, not just to the guy/gal sitting across from you at the kitchen table, but also your boss, your mother, your boss's mother, and her mother. One of my very favorite reflections from Henri Nouwen is "Love Deeply," found in hi

Therapy Thursday: Sweat
I have decided to dedicate a post on Thursday to therapy, and offer you the many tips I have learned on the couch. They will be a good reminder for me, as well, of something small I can concentrate on. Many of them are published in my book, "The Pocket Therapist: An Emotional Survival Kit." Work

Scrupulosity: What It Is and Why It's Dangerous
If you sprinkle a hefty dose of Catholic (or Jewish) guilt unto a fragile biochemistry headed toward a severe mood disorder, you usually arrive at some kind of a religious nut. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! For I am one. I have said many places that growing up Catholic, for me, was

The Treasures of Darkness
We often equate darkness with sorrow, misery, get-me-the-hell-out-of-here reaction. At least I do. That’s why I keep a mammoth Happy Lite on my smallish cubicle at work. But darkness can also be a treasure. Say what? J. R. Miller writes this in “From Streams in the Desert” by L. B. C

On Groundhog Day: 12 Winter Depression Busters
Last year on this day, I got fired. That was a real pleasant Groundhog Day. I was so confused by what had happened that I drove around the D.C. beltway twice. I missed my exit, and realized that halfway around the second time. I just thought on this day, you could probably use some winter depres

Children’s Letter’s to God
Dear God,
I went to a wedding on Sunday and they kissed right in church. Is that OK?
Neil
Dear God,
What does it mean You’re a jealous God? I thought you had everything.
Jane
Dear God,
Thank You for the baby brother, but I prayed for a puppy.
Joyce
Dear God,
If You watch me on Sunday I’ll show You my new shoes.
Mickey D.
Dear God,
Did You mean for the Giraffe to look like that or was it an accident?
Norma
Dear God,
Maybe Cain and Abel would not kill each other so much if they had their own bedrooms. It works with me and my brother.
Larry
Dear God,
Please send me a pony. I never asked You for anything. You can look it up.
Brian
Dear God,
Why is Sunday School on Sunday? I thought it was a day of rest.
Tom L.
Dear God,
Did You really mean “do unto others as they do unto you?’ Because if You did then I’m going to fix my brother!
Dana
Dear God,
We read that Thomas Edison made light. But in Sunday School they said You did. So, I bet he stole Your idea.
Sincerely,
Dora
Dear God,
I bet it is very hard for You to love all of the people in the whole world. There are only 4 people in our whole family and I can never do it.
Nan
Dear God,
It rained for our whole vacation and was my father mad. He said some things about You that people are not supposed to say, but I hope You won’t hurt him anyways.
Your friend (But I’m not going to tell You my name.)
