Fool, Foolish Coward

I was standing in line at coffee shop this morning and I was overhearing the conversation of the young kids in back of me. In youthful joviality one of them was sharing how he was planning to prank his sister, with an April Fools joke. I felt like I had heard the word fool for the first time in years. I have this happen lately, where I remember things that I have suppressed--they come at me so randomly. That's what happens when you start picking at a scab, you open up old wounds. The word fool was not allowed in the vernacular with Coward. " Don't call me a fool, or say, foolish! A fool is one who does not know god!" Ah, there goes that preaching again.

I love when people nit pick what scripture they want to follow. The fool part matters SO, SO much but ignore the; abuse, lying, infidelity not following the law of the land and so on. Really I could go on and on, because there's so much, hypocrisy coming from him.



“To those who abuse: the sin is yours, the crime is yours, and the shame is yours. To those who protect the perpertrators: blaming the victims only masks the evil within, making you as guilty as those who abuse. Stand up for the innocent or go down with the rest.”
