Each year on April 1st, a number of folks celebrate “April Fools Day” by playing tricks, jokes or setting up some form of a hoax. This has been celebrated for several centuries by different cultures, though its exact origins remain a mystery.
Those participating in these events often end up yelling “April Fools!” after they have completed their hopefully harmless innocent subterfuge.
It’s important to stay focused when looking to make changes in one’s life, seek clarification on goals and directions for accomplishing those vital steps which lead us to feeling fulfilled. However, it’s just as important to have humor, a bit of fun, and frivolity in our lives.
Take time to share something lighthearted and fun today with those that you make contact with. Maybe tell a joke, or even set up something silly and surprising that brings no harm to anyone.
It is totally possible to partake in April Fool’s Day without ending up looking like a fool in the end…….then again…..
Let us be thankful for the fools…but for them the rest of us could not succeed. ~Mark Twain
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes. ~ Sir Winston Churchill
