Laughter Lasts Enjoyable

More From David Levithan

A vast silence reigned over the land. the land itself was a desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not even that of sadness. there was a hint in it of laughter, but of laughter more terrible than any sadness-a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the sphinx, a laughter cold as the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility. it was the masterful and incommunicable wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life and the effort of life. it was the wild, the savage, frozen-hearted northland wild.
Dog Laughter Sadness
Laughter to begin with was probably glee at the misfortunes of others. the baring of the teeth in laughter hints at its savage ancestry. animals have no malice, hence also no laughter. they never savor the sudden glory of schadenfreude. it was its infectious quality that made of laughter a medium of mutuality.

Laughter is a symptom of spirituality. laughter is the flow of love coursing through your body. laughter is the nectar of present moment awareness. invite more laughter into your life and relish the magic in every moment.
Laughter Magic Body
There is a kind of laughter that sickens the soul. laughter when it is out of control: when it screams and stamps its feet, and sets the bells jangling in the next town. laughter in all its ignorance and cruelty. laughter with the seed of satan in it. it tramples upon shrines; the belly-roarer. it roars, it yells, it is delirious: and yet it is as cold as ice. it has no humor. it is naked noise and naked malice.

This is the message of your life and my life - it’s that nothing lasts. heraclitus said it: panta rhei. all flows, nothing lasts. not your enemies, not your fortune, not who you sleep with at night, not the books, not the house in saint-tropez, not even the children - nothing lasts. to the degree that you avert your gaze from this truth, you build the potential for pain into your life. everything is this act of embracing the present moment, the felt presence of experience, and then moving on to the next felt moment of experience. it’s literally psychological nomadism is what it is.

Film acting is really the trick of doing moments. you rarely do a take that lasts more than 20 seconds. you really earn your spurs acting onstage. i needed to do that for myself. i would hate to say at the end of everything that i never did a stage play.
