I have been asked to leave a church during a wedding, a school assembly, my husband's grandmothers funeral, a christening that was presided over by George Pell, cinemas, meetings and a library. All because I could not control my mirth. I don't laugh at falls since I had a bad one myself but I do laugh at the memory of mine. <br />My worst laughing moment was in a ladies toilet after a woman rushed in and hardly got the door closed before she had ripped off a fart that would have done an elephant proud. I had no chance to keep that laugh in, I just had to make sure I got out of there before I could be identified.<br />Stuff em I say, if we cant laugh at the moment what good are we?Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03854953060018958743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354886592375573348.post-48894496665598503412012-04-30T14:16:40.364+10:002012-04-30T14:16:40.364+10:00You're right, Sherry it is a "stong"...You're right, Sherry it is a "stong" subject and one that I feel quite strongly about because when the light bulb moment came, it was a huge relief. I hate to see people struggle with not being seen as vulnerable, the struggle tends to mute a whole lot of other things as well. I appreciate you taking the time to comment on this one. I write a lot more about vulnerability, success and the like at my main blog - raisingthecurtain.net and would love it if you swing by there and take a look.

If I have a question, I ask it. I would rather be brutally honest (if need be) than a liar or someone known to dodge an issue).
