Here are some foolish associations with the word “Fools,” on April Fools Day, 2016:
- On April Fools Day, 2015 (as documented in this foolish post), I was fool enough to meet with an arrogant fool of a cardiologist, who did not fool me or my doctors with his declaration that I was a doomed fool for not consulting with him earlier.
- Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.
- My son, Aaron, born of a foolish mother, is foolishly happy he will soon be attending the University of Edinburgh , whose alumni include fools like Charles Darwin, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson, and J.M. Barrie.
- Because I’m a foolish mother, I naturally believe that any college admissions offices that do not accept my son into their schools are fools.
- According to psychologist Carl Jung, the most developed and highly evolved archetype is The Fool, as described at a website discovered by this foolish daily blogger:
The Fool/Jester archetype urges us to enjoy the process of our lives. Although the Fool/Jester can be prone to laziness and dissipation, the positive Fool/Jester invites us all out to play–showing us how to turn our work, our interactions with others, and even the most mundane tasks into FUN. The goal of the Fool/Jester is perhaps the wisest goal of all, which is just to enjoy life as it is, with all its paradoxes and dilemmas. What causes most dread in the Fool/Jester is a lack of stimulation and being ‘not alive’.
I have no foolish photos to show you today.
