"I Love the Aussies!"

Back in my corporate marketing days I had the pleasure of several trips to Australia. I loved doing business there because the Aussies are no b.s. straight shooters, and that makes business fun. I also loved socializing with them, but I found I had better be rested up if I was going out!

My favorite thing about the people I met, though, was their wonderful, outrageous sense of humor. I never had so much fun anywhere else in the world or made friends so quickly. Whenever I read about some outrageous prank, I suspect that there's an Australian involved.

So I wasn't surprised today when I read an article in the paper telling how Australians are using more unusual and nontraditional music at funerals. No boring conventional hymns, they're using Led Zep's "Stairway to Heaven" or AC/DC's "Highway to Hell," depending on the deceased's record, I guess.

But the two song choices that had me doubled up laughing were "Hit The Road, Jack" and from the Wizard of Oz, "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead." Can you imagine playing that at a funeral? Only in Australia, and I bet the dear deceased was laughing along with everyone else.

Since my wife is a minister, I printed the article out so she can have it in her "memorial ideas" folder. We'll see how far she can stretch her sense of humor!

What does all this have to do with gratitude? Well, I'm so grateful for all my Australian friends, past and present. I'm especially grateful for laughter and I see a sense of humor as a very special gift from God. The ability to laugh at ourselves and with others is a delightful part of life - like spice in food. Life would be very bland without laughter. And nothing puts your problems in perspective like a good laugh.

Let me leave you laughing with one more good Australian saying:

"Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and have their shoes."

Keep laughing,
Wes

I love "Success: A Spiritual Matter". It's 220 pages of interviews with successful people who have learned and applied many of the same lessons that I have. I know there's good stuff in there for you. Joe Vitale's got more of his story in here, too.
