Yes, of course.  As a Filipino, humour is as significant as it is part of my daily life.  It makes life easier. Actually, we, Filipinos, are naturally witty and cheerful, making even difficult situations light.  Humour is part of our life.  Humility aside, we don't make extra effort to share our sense of humour with one another.  It just comes out naturally.  That's why, if you happen to meet a Filipino you will readily notice this trait.

Many people agree that a good sense of humor is one of the most important human qualities while other people have different opinion that a good sense of humor is important for life. Having a good sense of humor is one of the most important human qualities. We can use jokes to release our stress and to lighten our spirit. In my opinion, a good sense of humor could increase our productivity when doing some works.

 

There are two reasons why a good sense of humor is important for life.

 

First of all, a good sense of humor is important to relieve our stress especially when we have stressful jobs in our daily life . If we have some difficulties when doing certain activities, we may have some troubles in our workplace. One thing that we can do to relieve our stress is to listen a funny joke from our friend. Unfortunately, some people do not have a good sense of humor . Indeed, a funny joke cannot release their stress. I prefer to tell or to listen to a joke to refresh my mind, and then I can perform my jobs well.

 

Second, a good sense of humor can lighten the spirit. If we do not have a good motivation, our life will be useless. Thus, sometimes we feel desperate if we cannot reach our goals. Being desperate makes us frustrated.
