Incase you have not noticed :
Pay attention to the jokes your friends and loved ones make when teasing you. More often than not, it’s their brutal honesty being expressed amidst laughter. Because they don’t want to offend you. I don’t take those jokes for granted, I take note, and act on them.
The jokes are on me and I most often smile like yea I catch your drift I can see the punch line a mile away.
A typical example was a day my friend threw a party at his apartment of which I was present, when the time came for drinks, an old friend suggested that my cup should be bigger than any other person in the room, we all laughed over this harmless joke, but when I did a self assessment it was obvious that I usually have more than a fair share of drinks, so I told myself, I need to change, and today I no longer have alcohol problem. Always give a second thought when there is a funny joke about you,it help you re~shape, restructure and re~access yourself and your position .
