Humor and Playfulness

Posted on Jan 9th, 2006 by ~Matthew : Youthful Maturity ~Matthew
According to the authentic happiness test Brian gave us a link to a while back, those are my TOP strengths.  Why am I so disappointed, you ask?  Because I thought my top strengths were sex, charm, and good looks.  So, I've spent the last 26 years engaging life under those assumptions.  I'm glad somebody FINALLY corrected me!!  Well ok, Ayako has told me the same thing on several occasions, but I just thought she was being cute. 

In conclusion, I hereby resolve to flex my top strengths on a regular basis.  Please tell me how I'm doing in the "comment zone" below.  For example, you could say, "Matthew, your humorousness and playfulness make me the happiest spouse on earth!  Love, Ayako."  Or you could say, "Dear Matthew, we've never met, but after reading your blogs, I've decided to stop philosophising and become a dancer.  Sincerely, Stephen Hawking."  Or you could type some variety of "Matthew, that so-called 'authentic' happiness test is total crap.  You're the sexiest, most charming and good looking person ever!  Heartfully Yours, Matthew."

Matthew, you are a player of humour. Don’t twist our mind to laughing fits man, my tummy can’t handle a work out at the moment. Not while I am eating and writing to you at the same time! You are so good that I would throw rice at you like the picture horror house. Wait, better not, that is wasting food. Sorry man, I won’t throw rice you at afterall. Perhaps, clapping is most appropriate. Okei, clap clap clap. Stilling eating…Look what your humour and playfulness have done. You got me practising mult-tasking skills. Thanks so much. ^_~

You’re very welcome, Yuri!  How do you eat, clap, and type at the same time?  Is multi-tasking your top strength?
