We Laugh to Not Cry A comedian is not necessarily an angry and depressed artist. On the contrary, it is healthy to laugh at ourselves sometimes and not take our problems too seriously. We laugh to not cry. “Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” (Mt 6: 27, 34) It is a good coping mechanism when our enemies persecute us, and defame us, and try to murder us. We carry our cross, while we dream of the blessed happiness of the Lord. The heart of a comedian may be so full of love that he has the power to heal the world. The Problem of Comedy The dramatist admires humanity and creates works that say, in essence: under the worst of circumstances the human spirit is magnificent. Comedy points out that in the best of circumstances human beings find some way to screw up.
