People outsmart themselves all the time, but you acn't practice self deception if you're so dullwitted that you always see right through everything you're doing. There's a world of difference between being dumb and being wrong. Think of the most moronic things you've ever said. No doubt they fell mostly into the categories of "I love you" or "I hate you."These statements may have been unintelligent, but were they inncorect? Absolutely not.
We should never hesitate to listen to a fool tell aout life, because life is pretty foolish as far as I can tell. The grat thing about hearing from a simple mind is that we can understand what they're saying.
So who are the fools in the world we live in? Are they the ones who know nothing, therfor dont understand that certain theories have been painted on a canvas for thousands of years? Are thet the ones who have a broad perspective of the painting on the canvas, and overanalyze it to the point where they add their own colors so that it doesnt match? They add their own colors that clash with the old. Is that discovery or independence? Is it ignorance or art, in think you have found the paintings purpose?
The breath of life is a fool, yet a gift. God has given us this gift to use for the greater good, yet some find their own ways. People can see right through th symbolism of the clashing colors. Dont try to explain the concepts and meanings of life if you're just a child, because you dont know better.
But do we?
Children often see the world through the eyes of purity. Everything is tripled in beauty and importance in the eyes of a child, so what IS the meaning of life? Does it lie in the heart of a fool, or does it lie in the eyes of a child? The true answer to that is different for each soul. In your inner fools heart and your inner childs eye.
