The Timeless Wisdom of African Sayings and Proverbs.

1.”Teeth do not see poverty”.

Even when circumstances are dire, people still manage to find something to smile about.

2.”Only a fool tests the depth of a river with both feet”.

Don’t leap into a situation without first thinking about the consequences.

3.”Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped”.

Rather than dwelling on your mistake, look at what caused you to make the mistake.

4.”The best way to eat an elephant is to cut him up into little pieces”.

The best way to solve a problem is to tackle it bit by bit, one step at a time.

5.”He who does not know one thing knows another”.

No one can know everything but everyone knows something.

6.”Rain beats the leopards skin but it does not wash out the spots”.

No matter how hard you try, you cannot change another person’s character. Similarly, if you behave badly and develop a poor reputation, it’s difficult to change other people’s opinions of you, regardless of how many good deeds you perform.

7.”No matter how hot your anger is, it cannot cook yams”.

While anger can prompt a positive action that may resolve an issue, the act of getting angry resolves nothing.

8.”A roaring lion kills no game”.

Sitting around and talking about something gains nothing. The saying also implies that you should work towards your goals quietly rather than bragging about your achievements prematurely

9.”Do not call the forest that shelters you a jungle”.

Do not disrespect or insult someone who shares your burdens and responsibilities or who takes care of you.

10.”Rain does not fall on one roof alone”.

Trouble does not discriminate. It comes to everyone at some point.

11.”Ears that do not listen to advice, accompany the head when it is chopped off”.

A person who does not heed advice will suffer the consequences.

12.”Not everyone who chased the zebra caught it, but he who caught it, chased it”.

To achieve a result one must put in effort.

Fable: DON'T ARGUE WITH “DONKEYS”

The donkey said to the tiger:

- "The grass is blue".

The tiger replied:

- "No, the grass is green."

The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit him to arbitration, and for this they went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.

Already before reaching the forest clearing, where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey began to shout:

- "His Highness, is it true that the grass is blue?".

The lion replied:

- "True, the grass is blue."

The donkey hurried and continued:

- "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me, please punish him."

The king then declared:

- "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."

The donkey jumped cheerfully and went on his way, content and repeating:

- "The Grass Is Blue"...

The tiger accepted his punishment, but before he asked the lion:

- "Your Majesty, why have you punished me?, after all, the grass is green."

The lion replied:

- "In fact, the grass is green."

The tiger asked:
- "So why are you punishing me?".

The lion replied:

- "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green.

The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that come and bother me with that question."

The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who does not care about truth or reality, but only the victory of his beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on arguments that don't make sense...

There are people who, no matter how much evidence and evidence we present to them, are not in the capacity to understand, and others are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and all they want is to be right even if they are not.

When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent. Your peace and quiet are worth more. ❤️
