"Laughter is the closest distance between two people." — Victor Borge
This is a love story, but not in the conventional way. Laughter is infectious. We’ve all experienced that moment when someone laughs at an inappropriate time—like during a moment of silence in church—and before you know it, their stifled giggles have you laughing too. I want to share a bit about my business partner, Jesi, and her remarkable laugh. It’s a deep, full-bodied laugh that resonates throughout entire buildings. When Jesi laughs, the whole place lights up, and she does so every day. As the VP of Silver Dollar Inc., many of her colleagues can find her simply by following the echoes of her laughter.
In our business partnership, we’ve shared countless moments of joy, often sparked by something awkward I’ve done that makes Jesi burst into laughter. It’s the energy that keeps us going. Her laughter brings joy to everyone around her, day in and day out. They say laughter is the best medicine, and I wholeheartedly agree—my life and 7Stories are undeniably better because of Jesi's laugh.
