The Universal 'Horse shoe nail of mankind' is the "Ego". We tend to feed it and inflate it only winning the battle (short term illusion) and losing the war ( real happiness).
When we say a small thing made a big difference, is it actually a small thing? Or is it - a stitch in time that saves nine!
Children so love April fools day! My grandson just loves playing pranks on me. Several years ago he reset my cell phone so that every time I typed yes it turned it to no. When replying in texts I had to reply affirmative until he reversed the settings! Oh, what pranks they can pull and all the hearty laughs we can have.
Mark Twain had this to say re. 1st April: "It's the day on which we are reminded of what we are on the other 364 days". For those who feel a bit bogged down by his statement, "Just cheer up, guys/gals. We are in a leap year. So that makes all of us wise, atleast for a day".
