🖊️ COMMENTARY
One of the attributes of a virtuous mother is laughter. Laughter is not the absence of Sternness or principle. Laughter is a product of fair-mindedness and a good sense of humour. Fair-minded people don't worry about tomorrow because they prepare well ahead of tomorrow and leave tomorrow in God's hands. Blessed is the home with a laughing mother than a frowning mother. Laughing mothers are health to the home. Her home is a place of humour not mourning. Humour lightens burdens, inspires hope, connects the family, and keeps us focused and alert. It is a product of a forgiving life. Laughter or cheerfulness is an attitude. It is an attitude of those who know they are in charge and have a lively relationship With God and man. The virtuous Woman is worth having at home for her presence livens the home. Before the advent of medicine as a science, God declared to
man what being cheerful will bring to his life: "A cheerful attitude is like good medicine ." Prov.17:22 (FBV). After many years, science has discovered the following about laughter and good humour.
✔️ Laughter relaxes the whole body, and relieves physical tension and stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes after.
✔️ Laughter boosts the immune system. It decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies.
✔️ It triggers the release of endorphins, the chemical responsible for the overall sense of well-being, and relieves pains temporarily.
✔️ It improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow, which helps protect the heart against cardiovascular problems.
✔️ It burns calories. 10 to 15 minutes of laughter can burn approximately 40 calories.
✔️ It lightens anger's heavy load. Nothing diffuses anger and conflict faster than a shared laugh
✔️ A good sense of humour may help prolong our life span. In Nigeria especially, the life span of men is shorter than that of women because of the pressure that men permitted into their lives, no wonder we have more widows. Some of our homes have become very toxic and unhealthy as a result of the pressure of the harsh economic condition and some men have transferred the aggression to the family. They have become sadists to their wives and children.
