APHORISMS (PROVERBS) ARE CONCISE APT SAYINGS ~ BASED ON EXPERIENCE !
1. RSPCA - A BIRD in a BUSH is worth two in the HAND
2. Kitchens are frenetic ! You can never have too many COOKS
3. People in STONE houses - should not throw GLASS
4. NEVER Look before Leap ! Those who look first never LEAP !
5. Never HATCH your Chickens before they are COUNTED
6. No Wise Man - waits for either TIME or TIDE
7. In my experience (of Camping !) There is no Fire without SMOKE
8. FOOLS fear to tread - Where ANGELS rush IN
9. Never judge a COVER - by the BOOK it protectsyou
10. A KING can smile at a CAT !
Thanks for visitng - comments welcome - ANGELA & BRIAN π§‘ππ§‘
APHORISMS (PROVERBS) are a World wide phenomena and our Parents
instil them into us such as PENNY WISE ~ POUND FOOLISH ! Paradoxically
we have found (as in the TEN examples above) that some of them make
more sense when reversed ! C*est la Vie ~ ANGELA & BRIAN ππ§‘π

A fine write B&A. Sounds a bit like someone sneezing - 'Ahh-(choo)-phorism!' I'll go back to sleep, with that joke. lol.
Bit like: 'Ooh, I'm not going to that charismatic church'.
Reply: 'Why, is it catching?' (As if 'charismatic' sounded like 'rheumatic' or something).
Thanks UNCLE STEVE - ANGELA HERE ! Take care if you go to a CHURCH that is filled with the HOLY SPIRIT (CHARISMATIC) it is indeed very very catching ! As I found out when I moved from a very RITUALISTIC CATHOLIC CHURCH into a CHARISMATIC EVANGELICAL CHURCH ! I love the Freedom -- The Holy Spirit JOY and the Priesthood of all Believers. My parents (Lifelong Catholics) were a bit sceptical at first - but now they love it especially the PUPPETS and the fact that the church is led by Four unpaid Elders all under 60 and that Ladies can Preach & Pray. They are very Happy for BRIAN & I to be married there but have hedged their bets by arranging a NUPTUAL BLESSING by the Bishop in Seville Cathedral ! Its not what you know ~ its who you KNOW. BRIAN loves the solemnity & ritual of the Catholic Church and comes with me on High Days & Holidays which pleases my Me & My Parents ! Because He is a Deacon & My Fiancee they are happy for Him to take Communion ! Pleased you enjoyed the Presentation !
Blessings to YOU and your HIPPY HOUND
Love in the SPIRIT ANGELA & BRIAN
