What do you consider the most beautiful thing in the world?
Laughter. Not just HAHAHAHAHA-that-was-so-funny-i'm-literally-rotfl laughter but the laughter that only shows up after you've cried your eyes out because of some terrible event in your life; whether the death of a loved one, or a particularly bad breakup or just you got the world on your shoulders and you can't take it anymore kind of cry and along comes the one person in your life; the best friend, the soul mate, whatever you wanna call 'em, and they say one thing. ONE single insignificant thing and you laugh. It sounds almost alien after all the blubbering you've been doing but it's this spontaneous expulsion of laughter exploding from deep within your battered core and they join you and for however long that laughter lasts, the sadness has transformed into mirth.
This was really great. With a few words, you've established this really intimate relationship between two people. I loved the last part: "... for however long that laughter lasts, the sadness has transformed into mirth."
