Don't Pity the Fool!

April 1st. April Fool's Day. Prank Day.
Upon browsing the many links and sites dedicated to this ridiculous, albeit fun "holiday" (?), I came across this gorgeous painting. (check out the link for info on the artist and interpretation)
The Fool- by Mark Wilkinson
 I found this to be an inspiring look at how the traditional "fool" was portrayed symbolically. The fool card of the major arcana symbolizes a journey and a point at which to start over at zero. I think that sounds hopeful. Don't be stupid, but don't let people call you a fool for stepping off that cliff into the unknown. 
And take your dog with you.
