Proverbs

Traditional cultures have established mechanisms for creating a family. If a man imposed himself on a girl who is not nice to her, sought her out, or took her against her will for maintenance, then the relationship was not happy. Sometimes they didn't last long. She could live in his house, run the household, but do everything later

someone else's wife is like a narrow well,

Moral: if you see how water flows up the hill, then someone repaid kindness for kindness.

Proverbs 1 chapter

Bible. Parables.

Because I am a scorpion. This is my essence.

In the era of Chunqiu (the era of "Spring and Autumn"), Gong Huan from the kingdom of Qi undertook a military campaign to the kingdoms of Shangrong and Guzhu. The campaign was successful, the weaker kingdoms were conquered. When it was time to return home, Gong Huan's army faced an unexpected problem. Guzhu was quite far from the Qi kingdom. Huan's army went on a campaign in the spring, and completed it only in winter. By this time, snow had already fallen, and the surrounding landscape had changed so much that the troops could not find their way back.
In the end, they finally lost their way. Everyone was in a very anxious mood. Then the chief adviser Guan Zhong said to Gong Huan: "Old horses always remember the road they have already walked once. Why don't we rely on their wisdom? Let them guide us." So they did: they put some old horses at the head of the column and allowed them to find their own way to the house. After some time, the horses brought the army home.
An old horse knows the way (lǎo mǎ shí tú) it is said about an experienced person who knows how to behave in various situations, and knows how to find a way out of difficult situations.

- See what I mean? - asked the Indian. - It all depends on what is important to you.

- It has nothing to do with whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment you received is that such a brave and intelligent animal like the Tiger cannot waste its time arguing with the donkey. And then also come to me with this question.

You know about that; I have them!

You know about that; I have them!

The dried tree stood silently.
No one cuts, no one bothered.
During his lifetime, he gave a lot.
The time has come for the peace of the frozen.
Once saw a thief this tree at night.
No police silhouette there.
The tree was still standing silently.
The thief was frightened, his trail was cold.
The lover walked all in dreams of his beloved.
Seeing in the twilight, he said, "She!"
I didn't wait, he thought shamefully.
I accelerated my step, because I was standing... "one"...
More than once the tree smiled so much to passers-by.
But the sadness of the dried up was still there.
With his care, past the tree, too.
In the evening, the mother with the child went.
The kid has already listened to terrible fairy tales.
The ghost was able to appear nearby.
Mom saw her eyes crying.
I was in a hurry to calm the baby...
But the tree stands, gaining patience.
We would only have time to understand in time,
That the world around us is a reflection of ourselves.
Perhaps there is nothing more to say here...

On Jewish folklore
"Goat laughter from the front,
The horse, however, is behind!"
Not arrogance for the sake of,
And, to be believed,
There will be a moment to say a Jew,
Finishing with "Az oh-n-wei!"
In the dogonchnochka he will add -
"And fools - from all sides!"

On the bench comfortably old woman sat.
No, no, yes it will feed the pigeons.
And, at least to rest, squatting, I wanted,
However, to feed - for her pleasure!
A boy sat down next to him to get drunk with juice.
Looking at him, she smiled.
He decided to share his cake.
I thought, old woman, go hungry!
And she smiled again, accepting the treat.
The kid is fascinated, but he knew why.
He offered his juice to her, having gained patience,
To make her smile at him again.
And for some reason, the kid was smiling.
And it was light and easy on the soul.
He waited for the old woman's smile again.
It's time to come home already...
"Where have you been for so long?" my mother is excited.
"I spent half a day with God - an unexpected answer -
I'll call His smile the best!
There is no such smile in the world anymore!"
I returned home, rested a little.
Met the old woman a large family.
"Today on the bench I ate with God.
But he was younger than I thought!"
