Your quick wit and sense of humor may lead to lively discussions today, and it might be that by activating the part of yourself that is fun-loving and enjoys banter you could find that your interactions are much more energizing. While peppering your conversations with witticisms can make them fun and exciting, you may want to pay attention to the type of humor you are most likely to employ. If you should notice that your conversations are focused on negative things -- put-downs, gossip, or criticisms -- you might want to take a deep breath and remind yourself that humor doesn't have to come at the expense of other people. Keeping your playful nature positive today could make your discussions not only clever and upbeat but also encouraging and constructive.

Humor is a wonderful conversational tool when used in an affirming way. So much of our wit is often used to poke fun at another person, which means that instead of being positive, the joy of our conversations comes from putting down another person. Changing the nature of our humor, however, reframes the way we interact; instead of putting ourselves above another person, we use our humor as a means to comfort and identify more deeply with others. Our interactions then become a means to connect instead of separate from the people around us. Using your humor in an encouraging and supportive way will infuse your interactions with the delight that comes from making others laugh with you today.
