Features: Milan Kundera, the writer, once said: "Every intelligent person understands this simple truth: laughter and forgetting are suitable for vulgar and cruel reality." The heart is the world. The world becomes extraordinarily beautiful because of the laughter it radiates, and wisdom's transcendence and composure come from forgetting. Everyone is destined to float and sink in misfortune and turbulence throughout their lives. To laugh at the changing fortunes and forget right and wrong, success and failure, becomes a necessary practice for the maturation of the soul. The Bible says: "Suffering begets patience, patience begets maturity, and maturity begets hope." Laughter and forgetting keep us always clear-headed, adding more ease, more relaxation, more self-confidence, and more self-respect. Laughter, with a tolerant heart, resolves life's regrets; forgetting, by discarding the shadows behind, helps us grasp the present moment. Laughter and forgetting transform a heavy tragedy into a light comedy, making the sorrows, frustrations, ups and downs, and difficulties in life lighter and richer.
