The good news: comedy is all about miracles, transformation, new understanding, mercy. That’s the real miracle of comedy: forgiveness, the greatest LOL of them all. What is forgiveness but burying the dead and being okay with it? What can be more impossible and necessary in this life? They say God doesn’t keep a grade book, and I’m trying to throw mine away. “Love keeps no record of wrongs,” we hear so often in wedding ceremonies, and we smile like fools.
