Why Cry When You Can Laugh?

It may sound cruel but I laugh at "yo mom" jokes and other profanities about my misfortunes. Sometimes I feel guilty but then I realize would they really want me moping around and crying or would they want me to live my life. So what if they're dead... I'm not. I do miss them but that doesn't mean all is forgiven, nor that I want to be depressed. So I laugh in fact I encourage people to treat me as if my parents (and grandparents) are still around. In fact today me and my friend started cracking up about a error in communications. We were watching something on youtube and the movie "Bambi" was brought up and I mentioned that it was a sad movie. She asked how so I looked at her. Then she had a horrified look on her face and apologized immediately.  When I realized what went through her mind I  started laughing and said "Noooo that's not what I meant! I didn't even think about it in that way I was just saying it was sad..." blah blah blah. Anyways we both had a huge laugh about it. Granted everyone takes things differently but if you ever lose someone don't instantly think that you have to defend yourself over every little thing. If you go on like normal and treat these things like you normally would instead of huffing and puffing every time a little piggy let's the wrong choice of words slip then you're just going to remind yourself of the pain. Don't get me wrong though it's perfectly healthy to cry but I'm just saying it's easier to save the tears for personal time and enjoy the life you still have.
