“Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.”
– William James

This morning, they were talking about the laughing baby videos on YouTube and they are
so funny! There’s nothing that makes me feel better than a good belly laugh! Yesterday, I received
this video and roared. I love a good laugh. Have fun in whatever you do today and if you can’t laugh, at least wiggle your butt. It has the same affect.
About William James
American psychologist and philosopher William James, brother to author Henry James, wrote voluminously during his life, exploring a range of issues from a theory of emotion to a philosophy of history. He was born in New York in 1842 and wanted to be an artist, but his father disapproved. He obtained a medical degree but felt unsatisfied and depressed, leading to a crisis that he called his soul sickness. After this turning point, he began his fulfilling second career. He died in 1910.
