Silliness and Foolishness goes together

Without further ado, I will put it straight out in the open that Girls are silly beings and Boys are equally foolish. And it is only fitting that girl would be silly enough to go out with a foolish boy, and a boy would be foolish enough not to know what is good for him and go out with a silly girl.

Strange how this things turns out. There is no lose ends left. Silliness and foolishness go hand in hand together. So what is the thing that happens when silliness meets with foolishness? Love. And that is why I always say that Love is one of the greatest blunder the so called sapient beings commits. And that is as it should be, for blunders are what silly and foolish people are good at.

One may get the general feeling that I am so against love. But such is not the case. I will relate an incident which happenned in medieval France. A woman of noble birth, along with her noble husband, was walking through the garden of Versailles. She noticed a peasant girl kissing a peasant boy. This noble Lady was intrigued by this so she asked her husband, "Do this commoners can feel this exquisite feeling called love, darling?" When her husband confirms her in the affirmative, she was quite disappointed, "But it is much too good for them".

And she was right ofcourse. Love is too good a thing for humans altogether and should only be reserved for only the most powerful of Gods.

And this goes down in the history books as "Sir John's sermon on love" :-)

One tends to get attach to this one time or the other, so it is only fitting that I do it sooner.

and does tht mean tht people are not foolish :D

@Desperado
Indeed. People are divided into two groups.
1. Silly
2. Foolish

Silly girls and foolish boys, when they grow up become silly women and foolish men.

well if one finds happiness, no matter how stupid and silly they may be, while in love who are we to say "it is much too good for them".. It is the very thought of this so called NOBLE LADY that is gonna hurt everyone around, at most HERSELF (green with envy)... live and let live..



hey johney its just my opinion

I never agreed with the Noble Lady. It was just her opinion. And we all know that she is not just when she said "it is much too good for them".

Afterall, there is always some madness in love and always some reason in madness, quoting Nietsche.

I respect the Noble Lady's opinion as well as I respect yours.

have i grown older to become foolish john....??? am i being befooled by falling in love...??? or was a wise sapient when i was young detatched from the "so very silly" females???

If true love is for Gods, i pray that he gives me an opportunity to experience atlease a miniscule of that exquisition. Cannot make a generic prayer for humanity in this regard, can i ???

johney said...

@explications

Maybe, and I am using the word 'maybe' very loosely here, that you are an exception. And you know what? Exception proves the rule! For the exception exist to the rule means the rule exist too. Simple logical deduction.

And yes, about love, we can pray to the Gods, but when have the Gods ever answered our prayers? The Gods have abandoned us long time ago. They left us to suffer in misery and drown in sorrow.

i think god has not abondoned us rather he left us in a kindergarten so tht we experiecnce & learn something weather it is a mistake ,& coz love is too good .thts y he has given us it as heritage so we shud take care of it.

A noble thought! Mr Anomynous. And you will also say that we must have hope for the best and that we must believe God and trust in Him that everything happens for the good.

Yes, it is a noble thought, but only that.

hehe! love couldn't be defind more aptly than this! but love's the blunder that leaves u numb after causing the 'destruction'...n its a numbness that gives me a high so i'll say 'i'm a love fool'!! ;)

johney said...

@Mirage

^_^

Ofcourse you are right. Love is a blunder which we all want to commit.

AJ ! Serendipity !!! said...

such a different viewpoint. never thought abt love in this way.
but den do u believe humans ever get true love? i guess it is all make believe . . just an illusion
I guess true love is reserved only for the Gods

johney said...

Indeed! Ajay, you understood me more than most. Love is an illusion to beguile the foolish and deceive the unwary.

Even the Sun God Apollo was denied the very Love. So how us mortals can even think about this exquisite thing called love. What we have is only a mockery of the true Love, which Aphrodite along with her son Eros, gives out very rarely.

Foolish people...I beg you pardon..perfectly DUMB people rule this world. Foolish people know how to love. Perfect people can NEVER be happy. Because I read somewhere that a "perfectly mature man has only 2 secs to live". Ignorance is bliss! Stay ignorant, continue to LOVE!

johney said...

Hmmm... Maybe so...maybe so.
Ignorance is bliss. I would not know. I have never been that way. Or have been so deliriously been beguiled of being non ignorant, and is denied the bliss associated with it?

I suppose there is no perfectly mature person. We all try to be something which we are not. And that maybe the reason why we try to act non ignorant.

Thanks for stopping by akshay. I am not making much sense these days so don't be too hard on my writings.
