The Proverbs

African Proverbs and Proverbs from the Bible tell truth, give advice and teach about the probabilities for our lives based on the experience and wisdom of those who have gone before us.

From time to time I will add proverbs to this list. Please send me proverbs that you like, teach or given wisdom that you would like to share.

Cheers!
