A COMIC FISHING TALE

1. Humor 

Proverbs 17:22 Amplified Bible (AMP) 
22 A happy heart is good medicine and a joyful mind causes healing, But a broken spirit dries up the bones.

a) Most people are able to experience humor—be amused, smile or laugh at something funny—and thus are considered to have a sense of humor.

b) Having a sense of humor is infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. Laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. Humor and laughter strengthen your immune system, boost your energy, diminish pain, and protect you from the damaging effects of stress. Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free, and easy to use.

c) Laughter is a powerful antidote to stress, pain, and conflict. Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert.

d) With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is a tremendous resource for surmounting problems, enhancing your relationships, and supporting both physical and emotional health.

e) Here we have short humorous stories that may make you laugh to make the day. These stories are collected from unknown authors. 

f) We seek to amuse, even surprise, but never to offend.

2. A Comic Fishing Tale

One day a Catholic an Anglican and a Methodist decided to go fishing.  They got in their boat and rowed their way over to the middle of the lake. 

The Catholic remarked, 'I've forgotten my hat,' so he got up, got out of the boat and walked across the water. 

He returned and the Anglican said, 'I've forgotten the fishing bait,' so he got up, climbed out of the boat and walked across the water. 

He came back and the Methodist murmured, 'I've forgotten the beer.'  He got up, jumped out of the boat and was standing in the water then he sank. 

The Anglican turned to the Catholic and asked, 'Do you think we ought to tell him where the stepping stones are?'
