Feed Your Fool

I try not to write too many posts that don't directly tie into what I am doing in Haiti. I also try not to post anything unless I have written or experienced it myself.

Tonight, I break the rules.

I just arrived back in Haiti 24 hours ago. All is well! Yes, I'm still apprehensive. And yes, there are times when I wonder what the heck I'm doing. But, for the most part, I'm at peace! And I'm excited to be back!

“I must learn to love the fool in me–the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries. It alone protects me against that utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant whom I also harbor and who would rob me of my human aliveness, humility, and dignity but for my Fool.”
Theodore Isaac Rubin (born 1923);
psychiatrist, author

Friends….Feed Your Fool!  Feed her with good music, art, food, friends, rest whatever it takes! (living in Haiti). Grow her up, don’t let her die!! Invite her forward and cherish her!!  She’s precious and she’s the world changer.

And when folks suggest that you act/behave/think more wisely don’t forget. . .

1 Corinthians 1:27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

That is all.
Love,  A Professional Weak Fool
