Power up with Proverbs

Proverbs store the refined wisdom of the ages in short, memorable lines. Often they have several layers of understanding. This blog features a weekly proverb and explores its meaning. Sir Winston Churchill, the former British Prime Minister, war leader, writer, painter, historian, bon viveur, and very good bricklayer, recommended that people who lacked formal education should acquire a good stock of proverbs. "The Wisdom of Nations lies in their Proverbs... Collect and learn them". William Penn

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

We don't usually set out to be bad but it is easy to slip into wrong ways. That little extra drink, just one more chocolate and we'll start the diet tomorrow, and then tomorrow. But tomorrow is a day that never comes. It is not enough just to want to do the right thing, you must exercise disciple and determination to achieve your goals.
