Advice from all Quarters!!!

Here I am on the cusp of a big change in my life! gone are the good old student days, I am a big man now! I am going to start working from tomorrow!

So, I have been recieving well meaning but often contradictory advice.

Grandma says Look before you Leap while grandpa comes up with he who hesitates is lost

Mom says There's safety in numbers but dad believes Its better to be alone than in bad company!

A little more research lead to this....

Birds of a feather flock together but Opposites Attract

You r never to old too learn but u cant teach an old dog new tricks

Ask no questions and hear no lies but ask and you shall recieve

Doubt is the beginning, not the end of wisdom but faith will move mountains

Dont cross the bridge till you come to it but forewarned is forearmed

Silence is Golden but the squealy wheel gets the grease

A miss is as good as a mile but half a loaf is better than none

An old fox is not easily snared but there's no fool like an old fool

A good beginning makes a good ending but its not over till its over

If at first , u dont succeed try, try again but dont beat a dead horse

Hold fast to the words of your ancestors

but
Wise men make proverbs, fools (like me) repeat them.


p.s: hope to bolg regularly from now on again... feels good to be back!

amazing collection of contradictory things and I am sure you can add credibility to each of those sayings with some BIG name. The lesson is
'nothing matters' :P
