What is a theme? In music it is the underlying melody used as a basis for development. In a book it is the motif
that gives purpose to the pages within. Then a theme could be grief, beauty, darkness, optimism, pessimism, ambition,—or laughter.
Laughter can be defined in many ways—they are all synonomous.
Laughter is a necessity—think of the comedians who would starve without it.
Laughter is free, in bountiful supply, is not taxed and can be enjoyed by everyone.
Laughter, like love, is a universal language, understood equally well by young and old. Laughter knows not the
reins of social class or nationality.
As a famous philosopher, J. J. Brown, once said, "the man who cannot laugh has just eaten a green persimmon."
