This is a feel good collection of poetry and will bring a smile to the reader and a bit of relaxation. It is not a deep look into Buddhism, but rather like most religious statues and paintings a reminder of our purpose. Bad things happen as well as good and often we are powerless to change their course. We must accept what we cannot change, much like Camus said in the Myth of Sisyphus -- "One must imagine Sisyphus happy."
Poems of the Laughing Buddha is nice collection and reminder to all of us to that we cannot control everything in our lives and sometimes laughing with the Buddha is much better than cursing the world. Also to Robbins credit, her message of being positive is not overdone like so many self-help, find happiness in your life books that flood the market. Confucious said, "Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." Buddha said, "There is no path to happiness: happiness is the path." Robbins clearly demonstrates these ideas with her words.
