April has an interesting holiday-- April Fools Day - that is where it is acceptable to terrorize your family and friends. To play tricks, jokes and often take sadistic pleasure in scaring the crap out of them with some hair brain story about something that did not happen. In essence they are trying their best to make a fool out of you. The intention is geared toward having some fun at their expense and getting either a smile or a rise out of someone you supposedly care about! It is all in good fun!
Or a better more heinous use of April Fool's Day is to go after someone you particularly don't like. You come up with some great story or situation that you know will freak them out and you spring it on them. The only problem is that most horrible people are targets for April Fools so you better get them good and early before everyone else who doesn't like them gets to them first LOL the joke doesn't fly because they already realize what day it is. I have solved this dilemma by celebrating April Fool's Day on the 31th. I know that's cheating but isn't it about fooling someone!
The problem arises when you feel you have been fooled or feel like a fool by someone you care about---or even worse by someone you thought cared about you when it is not April Fool's Day! How often have you said, "I feel like such a fool!" If this keeps happening you must first look to see if this is a reoccurring pattern in your life. That is a real test to your growth and and your desire to get passed your karmic contract. But remember we have the power over what we allow another person to do to us. We own our emotions and reactions. They belong to us -- nobody else-- and it is up to us who we give them away to. Never give anyone that kind of power over you. But patterns are hard to break but not impossible. People change for the better each and every day! You can easily be one of those people. Just decide when you are ready to no longer become victim or slave to your emotions! This does not mean you do not care but it means that you think before you totally surrender your feelings, heart and desires to some other human being. Protect and honor your heart and emotions...Get to truly know someone before you give away the farm...Love and cherish yourself ... The sooner the better....
We do this by paying attention to a person's actions first then there words. The two things must be the same. Trust your own thoughts and feelings. They belong to us and are special do not be such quick to hand them over...No one can "make" a fool out of you unless you let them.

Easy Rules To Follow:
- Do not make excuses for bad behavior.
- Do not excuse lies or misdirections by their words not matching their actions.
- Do ignore any form of mistreatment
- Do not ignore warnings of people you truly trust
- Do not just accept whatever is given if it is less than your needs
- Do not let your fears override your good judgement
- Do value yourself
- Do stand up for yourself
- Do ask hard questions and require honest answers
- Do trust your intuition and inner feelings
- Do listen carefully and digest what is said
- Do be reasonable but not a door mat!
BUT the most important thing in this message is :
YOU ARE NOT A FOOL FOR LOVING SOMEONE!
You can never be fooled or feel like a fool if you use the list above and remember to love yourself first ... then no one can treat you like on April Fool's Day because you would never allow it! And never beat yourself up for loving someone who did not reciprocate or value what you offered. They are the fools because true love is not often given or offered as frequently as it is desired. They threw away an amazing opportunity ... not you! So be proud you loved and be proud that you offered..if you are not sure call me and we can take a look and see how to look at love and life differently so you will never say again; "I feel like such a fool!"
