WHY IS APRIL FOOL'S SIGNIFICANT FOR ALL?
Do you like being the object of funny, or mean, or worse jokes? I truly do not, but, while I do not like being funny, mean, or worse with unsuspecting others, I have learned to stand my ground when others try to play "APRIL FOOL'S" Jokes or pranks on me!
No need to detail something that happened decades ago but to say it would have been life changing!
Today, I have chosen beachglass and butterflies as a very real example of change and transformation that many times really does fool people.
Beachglass, or sea glass, or many other names given to the small pieces of glass, originating from silica or sand and found in bottles of all shapes and sizes which when disposed of, intentionally or unintentionally, wash up to the sandy beaches across the world. Many really think, before being made aware, that these are true jewels of the sea. THEY ARE QUITE BEAUTIFUL AS THEY CATCH THE EYE OF SOMEONE LIKE ME WHO COLLECTS THE PIECES.
It is quite different when the truth be told.
The silica has been transformed many times from the beginning of its life as simple sand until it is found on worldwide beaches. This is a transformation1
Another transformation is what everyone knows as a butterfly.
It, too, begins life as a part of nature...the caterpillar. Through a wonder of science the caterpillar experiences a fantastic metamorphosis to eventually become a butterfly.
The butterfly is a well known symbol of transformation.
April Fool's is known for changes and transformations from what people believe is initially true to the truth of what they have been fooled about.
Change and transformation necessarily require acceptance, much like the happenings on April fool's day. Acceptance of what appears and what is real.
MAKE A LIFE IS ALL ABOUT CHANGE AND TRANSFORMATION, BUT FIRST ACCEPTANCE MOVES SOMEONE TO KNOW THAT A CHANGE AND TRANSFORMATION ARE NEEDED...
How does that come about?
EMOTIONS, FEELINGS, AND A LACK OF ACCEPTANCE OF WHAT SOMEONE'S LIFE APPEARS TO BE, BUT IT IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS. It can be as simple as a day like April Fool's when what someone believes of their life is no longer what is real! Looking in the mirror sometimes prompts the emotions and feelings of awareness.
WHAT DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR?
ARE YOU READY FOR A CHANGE, A TRANSFORMATION?
