If you can't live longer, live deeper.
Enough is as good as a feast.

unlike human brain,

African proverb.
Jamaican proverb
“when you see an old lady run, don’t ask what’s the matter
you run too”
I read this and laughed
I am old lady
I get it.
If I am running
there is a bear, a bull or an alligator chasing me
or maybe an enemy with a machete
great advice and marvelous proverb
between speaking and doing
there is a long road to walk
and a great desert to march
an immense sea to cross
Irish Proverb
A long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.

A cold pint and another one.

Wise Eden retold
Come, pay homage to old age
To recompense gold.
Today I’m thankful for the birds and this old bird proverb
with all the wisdom to us it brings:
A bird sitting on the branch of a tree is never in fear of the branch breaking
because her trust is not in the branch
her trust is in her wings.
A vended injurious tongue begets a curse
But one who strives to live a clean life is blessed in many ways

It never rains
But it pours,
Is an old proverb
That still endures.
For:
When you’ve a leak in your roof
And your buckets for drips are ready,
Why do the heavens always open
And the rain never fall steady?
A breakdown always happens
At the very worst place and time,
Nature and the elements conspiring
To ensure we earn our place –
At the finishing line.
We go to heaven, for the good weather,
We’re going to hell for the company.
Eat bitter, taste sweet
Do this, rewards you will reap.
Fight, savour, repeat.
A man is sick
And she tells him"
If you eat this middle sugar cane,

Message:
Beside pure honey,
There is no a tree or fruit
Which is so sweet
Than Sugar cane.
If a Bantu woman reffers
Herself as middle Sugar can or sugar,
She means a lot about herself
Physically
And spiritually
1. She can use her body as first care
When a man has fever
And they don't have some
tablets in the house.
2. She can be a psychologist
Of a confused man
3. She can stand with her lover
In hard times till to overcome
The challenges.
4. The middle Sugar cane
Expressing the sweetest
Of her privet part
in romance which every man chase
And enjoy the most.
When you see
A crocodile swallowing a tortoise,

Message: By forcing something , you can call your own death...." in general"
In relationship: When a mowan " man " rejects you , don't force that relationship because it can end so badly.
Learn sometimes to accept defeat and moving on.
...You were not born to win everything on this earth...
If you want to be always winner , one day you won't make it and end up killing yourself.
