## Resource

There's a strange kind of pressure that comes with being an adult. We’re encouraged to take things seriously and to have it all figured out. But what if being silly is one of the most important things we can hold on to? Harry Hill is one of Britain's most loved comedians, known and adored for his surreal comedy that has been making the country laugh for decades. In this Great Moment, Harry reflects on the loss of his dear friend Sean Lock, and explains why refusing to take yourself too seriously might just be the best way to get through the hard times.  Sometimes the most profound lessons come from the people who taught us to laugh.
