It is always a whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey & a rod for the fool’s back..🤭

I am sure you know it very well that nobody would like to be called a fool or live like a fool. Still everyday I see people acting foolishly & unwisely 🤭..

Let me remind you that someone’s foolishness can only be seen in terms of their actions. It is what you do that makes you foolish or not, there is no other standard. Therefore the definition of a fool then is “someone who does foolish things frequently.” That is to say, “being a fool” is a matter of degree rather than a simple quality that one is either afflicted with or not.

Sweetheart, every fool will obviously act foolishly, but it is also not uncommon to see even the most intelligent people act foolishly sometimes.. That’s pretty okay…

Everyone makes mistakes… But only the Fools repeat them.

As a dog returns to his own vomit, a fool repeats his folly.. Most of the time a foolish person appears to take pride in being foolish & folly is a joy to them. The fool generally considers lightly the consequences of their mistakes & deceives not only their own heart, but also works at trying to deceive others as well.

As a result, the foolish person often finds themselves suffering hardship from their choices, actions & reactions. It is said that – A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey & a rod for the fool’s back..

Here are a couple of tips to overcome foolishness & stop being a fool… Let you practice with these things to begin with & who knows that a great deal of life experience just might get you closer to wisdom….

• Don’t screw up the same thing & make the same mistake again. No, Never!
• Be teachable & correctable, learn every day not only from your own mistakes & life but from the mistakes & lives of all those around you,
• Listen to advice. Don’t be a know-it-all,
• Do not be quick to quarrel,
• Conquer your quick temper, don’t excuse yourself for it,
• Rather than getting annoyed or remaining irritated, be willing to forgive offenses,
• Don’t blameshift. Take accountability for your actions,
• Listen well first before answering,
• Don’t offend others by a constant flow of your own opinions,
• Seek moderation over instant gratification,
• Trust in God, not in your own wisdom,
• Never become “all grown up,” but continue to grow until the day you die..

Today I wish & hope that this proves to be a good starting point on the path to wisdom & meaningful life. I am working on it myself.

Stay Blissful & Blessed 💐
