Could you come up with your own personal proverb, based on your own inner wisdom that could go down in history forever?
Remember, wise words and amazing insights were written by ordinary people like you and I!
You could even play on a current well-known proverb.
I’ll kick off with one.
“Be the author of your own life, that way, you always know what is going to happen next!”
and a play on a proverb
“People who live in glass houses, have no privacy”.
Have fun with it or show us just how wise you really are!
