Who Makes You Laugh?

My best friends are all really good at making laugh. Like full-hearted  laughs, not just those polite, or I-didn't-hear-you-but-I'll-laugh-to-seem-like-I-did laughs. I suppose the reason that they can make me truly laugh is because we know each other really well and we have common "funny topics". Those little inside jokes are also totally funny, and the fact that no one else can understand us just makes the whole thing funnier. However, it is sometimes quite rude and unwelcome to talk all about your inside jokes with your friend while being in a conversation with someone else who doesn't get your joke. At least in my opinion, it's very rude and extremely mean and exclusive. My friends also know the things that I would think are funny, just like how we know what type of songs and movies each other likes. Clumsy people also makes me laugh, because of how they always do things that were not deliberately funny, yet they're just so cute when they try to get there stuff together. I know it's mean to laugh in that situation, but I laugh in the kind way, because they're really cute and funny in a good way when they do that.

Is Fear Our Worst Enemy?

I believe that fear can both be a friend to humans and also an enemy. Fear is among one of the greatest motivations including: hatred, revenge, love, and power (in my opinion/experience). All of them can urge people to do things, either wonderful or terrific, that they never thought they could accomplish. However, that can be both a good and a bad thing. If any of these motives were used to do something destructive to others or oneself, then they are definitely not our friends. For example, threatening someone to do something is using fear against that person. Sometimes, when you combine the motives, the effects may be even bigger, like threatening the lives of that person's loved ones. They, however, can also be used to motivate someone to do good. Like sacrificing themselves because of love or getting a good grade out of fear. However, fear is not a good motivator and should be used as little as possible. It should only be used to help us, not control us. If you let fear control you, then that makes you very vulnerable not only to your own fear but also to others who may turn your fear against you.
