Five minutes can flip your morning from heavy to light, and today we prove it with a pocketful of hilariously bad newspaper headlines and a fresh take on joy as daily medicine. We start with a simple idea from Proverbs—“a cheerful heart is good medicine”—then bring it to life with wordplay that makes you snort-laugh and a reflection on why humor is a strength, not a distraction. Along the way, we look at how laughing at ourselves builds humility, lowers stress, and opens space for kindness.
You’ll leave with small, doable ways to choose joy: laugh with your kids, send a kind text, collect three go-to lines that break tension, and make a five-minute ritual that resets your mind before the day gets loud. By the time your head hits the pillow, our hope is that you’ll look back and say, that was a really good day—not because it was perfect, but because you chose laughter on purpose and shared it. If this gave you a smile, hit follow, share it with a friend who needs a lift, and leave a quick review to help others find a brighter start.
