The lost art of humor

I think I’m sometimes the only one in the dozens of meetings I’m in weekly who notices a glaring lack of humor. Serious business is serious, I understand, but perspective without humor is a very narrow perspective indeed.

Taking the subject matter seriously is one thing; taking ourselves too seriously is another. No wonder friction is much the norm when we’re low on the social lubricant of humor. It’s a worthy intention to en-lighten any dialogue, and always a delight to discover at least one other set of twinkling eyes.
