in a similar vein of the stories you guys are telling, i often make an effort to bring about humor and light-heartedness in a situation that involved some degree of suffering. naturally, i want to feel happiness in those around me, and therefore, i usually make jokes or harmless sarcastic comments during a stressful situation in order to inspire the idea that misery is not necessary at any given time. sure, it's a wonderful catalyst for growth, and i embrace it as such, but we must be joyful when we grow or else we are lessening that growth!
