It's your outlook on life that counts. If you take yourself lightly and don't take yourself too seriously, pretty soon you can find the humor in our everyday lives. And sometimes it can be a lifesaver!

Hello Paul -I can understand why finding humor in difficult times can be challenging.   However, when it is discovered that may also be the moment where things of all kinds begin to look a bit different.

Good morning, Paul... that Betty White was a very wise woman! I've always believed it's a mistake to take oneself too seriously. (Love this morning's photo, by the way. Simply smashing.)

I just hope to be functioning and or alive at 99 years old. If I didn't have the opportunity to laugh at myself it would be a dismal life.

happy Tuesday Nina Hollander, Broker

I recall Betty White's many TV performances through the years.  I believe she probably not only came up with this quote, but also lived it throughout her life.
