Today's Reading


Just because you appear foolish, doesn't mean you are. In fact, some of the most brilliant, creative people can often appear to be quite foolish at first.
Anything that's out of the ordinary can seem foolish. Yet the way to make real progress in discovery is to go beyond what's ordinary and expected.

Don't live in fear of looking foolish. Because you'll discount your best ideas before you even have the chance to explore them.

There's nothing to be gained by proving how ordinary you are. Instead, find the great value in your own uniqueness and let that value become a part of you.

As someone who has spent years fighting my stupidity label given to me when I was 6 and left me when I was 44! I can now take looking foolish in my stride.As I know it's ok.

Like Fire Byrd, I also had a childhood stupid label (in school), only to discover that I wasn't stupid, I was just different.

Thanks for sharing this today, dear lady!

I so enjoy these fairy readings.

On the other hand,it's quite ordinary to look foolish occasionally. We all do it now and then. I must say, I get some sense of security from being a lot like other people in that.
