But it is tough to laugh at ourselves. I struggle with this. It is not because I cant laugh at myself but because I take life too seriously.
When I look back at my failures in life, one can only laugh at them. But instead I remember I used to cry over them. It was so foolish of me.
I remember the first time I had mental depression it was because I took life too seriously. It started to impact my mental health. I was worried about my future. I could see myself being a failure. When I consistently failed I felt that my life is over.
Funnily life never stops for anyone. My life never stopped but moved ahead from failures. Only later I realised this. The rollercoaster of life is a reality so we have to laugh all the time at ourselves and at the ups & downs of life.
The best way is to distance yourself from the situation & even better distance yourself from yourself
What about you?
