There’s nothing like a true gut laugh. They come suddenly, uncontrollably – there’s something sacred about them. They hit without warning, usually in the quietest rooms, and they level you completely. In that moment, all walls drop. You’re not thinking, you’re not performing, you’re just there simply cracking open with someone who “gets it”.
A shared gut laugh is a brief, perfect connection. It says: I understand you – I feel this too. And even if it never happens again, that laugh becomes a part of you both. A quiet intimacy no one can touch.
Because once we’ve laughed like that, we’re never strangers again. This may be one of the best feelings in the world. Realizing you can’t hold back, that the laugh has full control. At that moment, we’ve instantly invited one another into our corners.
