Proverbs

Two Wise Men and a student.

Wisdom was handed down to our grandparents by their ancestors and they perfected their knowledge in the great depression. My parents grew up in the households of wisdom. I wonder how often King Solomon's Proverbs were read in living rooms and at kitchen tables across America in the 1930's? Given the choice of the newspapers or Proverbs for starting and ending the day today, I'm choosing the King.

Talk about depression. For how much longer will failure and finger pointing be news worthy? Attitude is the greatest depression. There are stories in the world about Americans who are taking action, keeping businesses open, paying employees fair wages, creating jobs, and making life better for someone. A test of faith is to believe it's happening because you wouldn't know it by what's being reported.

I quit reading the paper and put my TV in the closet. There is no reason to go to madison.com anymore either. I'll watch YouTube and Thirty Rock on-line for entertainment--but not at home, I have no cable.

There are 31 Proverbs. One a day for the month of March. I'm guessing on April 1 my attitude will be better than had I read the paper for a month.
