"I consider myself a very funny person with a very open sense of humor, and I need to laugh in order to feel close with someone or have a good time. Humor to me represents a bond you and another person have. Having similar senses of humor is very important to me because everyone loves to laugh, especially with other people, and you can learn a lot about a person based off of what they think is funny. Finding things to laugh about in any situation is important for mental strength and getting through life. I always find something to take lightly and laugh about in a serious situation or when doing something wrong. I laugh about it and learn from it."

"Humor is something I utilize as a way to lighten a situation. Sometimes, it can be interpreted as insensitive, but it is how I cope with things. I want to express love and humor in my daily life by telling one person (a friend, family member, pet) that I love them and I would love to have a good laugh with them. My behavior reflects this value by me trying to always stay positive. The actions I can take to show my commitment to this value is to go to bed everyday and list things I appreciate about that day and tell someone I love them."

"To me, humor means the act of telling stories or jokes in a funny way that makes people laugh. But to me humor is more than just a story or a joke. What do we do when we laugh? We smile. Humor to me is a sense of getting away. When someone's having a bad day, a bad week, a bad month, that one little joke lightens their mood. My behavior reflects this value because, no matter my mood, I'm always cracking jokes to others to make them feel a little better. Humor is something that everyone can use to ease the harshness of life every now and then. We only get one life, and we should take it with a gain of salt. Not every minute should be so serious."
