Wise Man Say (17).

 

Wise Man Say

A Door Is Not for Walking

Out Off

It Is for Choosing Were

To Enter.

 

Wise Man Say

When You Have a Drink With

Mates After work and

Get Home Late,

Be Happy Because the Dog

Has Been Fed.

 

Wise Man Say.

The Only Lasting Peace

That Comes Out

Of War

Is Death.

 

Wise Man Say.

Behind Every Successful

Man

Is an Expensive Woman.

 

Wise Man Say.

You Cannot Fail Unless

You Have Tried.

You Cannot Succeed

Unless You Have

Failed.

 

Wise Man Say.

Do Not Be Afraid Of

The Truth.

Initially It Might Hurt

Eventually It Will

 Heal.

              “Wise Man Say.
              Do Not Be Afraid Of
              The Truth.
              Initially It Might Hurt
              Eventually It Will
              Heal.”

              My favorite of these because it is so damn true. I have been facing my own truths, and truthfully, some of them have hurt like hell. But facing them…owning them….all of them…has begun to release me from hell. So there it is. Powerful truth, my friend. I hope many have ears to hear. Yay!!! Can’t wait for more of these to come. You are a wise one, Tobani! For sure! Happy Sunday to you, my friend! 🌹👏
