SCOTTISH PROVERBS

-
Never let your feet run faster than your shoes. 

Be happy while you're living, For you're a long time dead. 

What may be done at any time will be done at no time. 

Learn young, learn fair; learn old, learn more. 

Get what you can and keep what you have; that's the way to get rich. 

Willful waste makes woeful want. 

When the heart is full the tongue will speak. 

Be slow in choosing a friend but slower in changing him. 

Fools look to tomorrow. Wise men use tonight. 

Confessed faults are half mended. 

They that will not be counselled cannot be helped. 

They that sow the wind, shall reap the whirlwind. 

Luck never gives; it only lends. 

Better be ill spoken of by one before all than by all before one. 

Take care of your pennies and your dollars will take care of themselves.

UNTIL DEATH DO US APART

-
When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.  Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?  I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.  She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life

B.O.M.B SERIES ONE: MUST GOD CHOSE FOR ME?

-
MUST GOD CHOOSE FOR ME? God initiated marriage and yearning it to be worked by standards of His statement; notwithstanding He doesn't constrain His will on humanity. He gives us disclosures of His will and we are the one to settle on the decision of obeying Him or not. God must not decide for you but rather it is fitting to permit Him to decide for you since He is the designer, expert developer and expert organizer of the marriage foundation with a right and legitimate manual for safe direction... There is nothing done by God without a reason. God has his objectives for setting up marriage and a portion of the reasons are: Partnership, Purity, Provision, Procreation, Protection, Pleasure and Preservation of mankind. He made the individual you need to wed; he knows the heart of both of you. He knows the fate of both of you; only he sees what you don't see and can tell whether the marriage will work or not. In addition, regardless of the possibility that you abandon him an

SMARTEST MAN IN THE WORLD

-
A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble. In spite of the best efforts of the pilot, the plane started to go down. Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute and yelled to the passengers that they better jump, and he himself bailed out. Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining. The doctor grabbed one and said “I’m a doctor, I save lives, so I must live,” and jumped out. The lawyer then said, “I’m a lawyer and lawyers are the smartest people in the world. I deserve to live.” He also grabbed a parachute and jumped. The priest looked at the little boy and said, “My son, I’ve lived a long and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live in peace.” The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said, “Not to worry Father. The smartest man in the world just took off with my back pack.” MOR
