Charlie received a Virtual Reality headset for Christmas and he brings it to our place when he stays over. He loves this thing. When he's playing a game with the headset on he looks hilarious. He's moving his hands and body around in patterns that make no sense to those not in his virtual world. I crack up every time! He can't hear you laugh though as he gets a little embarrassed. For me it's a stolen laugh and I love it!
A stolen laugh can also be something that takes your joy or lightheartedness away. I try not to focus on the stealing of my joy and prefer to focus on something that brings me laughter. Did you steal a laugh at something unexpected today or did you come across something that might have taken that smile right off your face? Show us your definition of stolen laughter.
