A older couple is lying in bed

One crisp morning, an older couple lay cozily in bed, the sunlight gently streaming through their bedroom window. Having just awoken from a peaceful night’s sleep, they took a moment to savor the tranquility of the morning together.

As the husband turned to his wife, he reached out and took her hand, a warm smile lighting up his face. “Good morning, sweetheart,” he said, relishing the moment of connection.

But to his surprise, she responded sharply, “Don’t touch me.”

Taken aback, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why not?”

With a seriousness that he found puzzling, she replied, “Because I’m dead.”

He blinked and shook his head in disbelief. “What are you talking about? We’re both lying here in bed together and talking to one another!”

Unfazed, she insisted, “No, I’m definitely dead.”

Intrigued and a bit concerned, he pressed her, “You’re not dead! What in the world makes you think you’re dead?”

She looked at him with a straight face and said, “Because I woke up this morning, and nothing hurts.”

At this, he burst into laughter, realizing the humor in her unexpected claim. “Well, if that’s the case,” he chuckled, “I must be a ghost as well, because I feel fantastic!”

They both erupted into fits of laughter, the morning air filled with their playful banter. It was a perfect reminder that laughter and love are the best lifelines in life, and sometimes a little humor is just what you need to start the day right.
