Thanks for watching! Any great proverbs we missed?
A stitch in time saves nine.
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
If you wait by a river long enough, the bodies of your enemies will float by.
For the one who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for the one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be his greatest enemy.

"Before preparing to improve the world, first look around your own home three times."
That hit hard.
Imagine being Einstein who has not done that.
Sounds like a Jordan Peterson quote, 'Tidy your own bedroom first.'
In polish we have similar phrase but maybe more straightforward: " If you plan to change the world, begin from yourself"
一屋不扫何以扫天下。If you don't sweep a house, how can you sweep the world?

Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you. Ain't that the ever living truth.
Oh yeah. Never a truer word.
Oh, I don't know about that; no one gossips to me (or talk to me), but I know they talk about me.
@@count7340 Quem traz também leva.
Yes,most of the times
@@count7340 that's different. The quote states that IF someone gossips to you they will gossip about you. It doesn't mean the reverse. It never said that someone who gossips about you would necessarily gossip to you.
3:20 "Write the bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the things that happen to you on a piece of marble."
This is very beautiful for its deep meaning. Why does it says to write the bad things that happen to us in sand? So that the wind would blow it away and we won't think about it anymore. Instead, we look on the bright side of our life and write the good things that happen to us on a piece of marble. So we could cherish and remember those good moments thus being grateful.
Great explanation 👍🏼
But aren't "bad things done to you" also technically things that happen to you?
@@HarryPotter-pi3km yeah, things that happen to us in a way that we recall it as a bad thing or a bad memory.

"The hands that help are far better than the lips that pray" - Robert Green Ingersoll
False dialectic, do both. Saint Augustine recites this ridiculous dialectical idea: “pray as though everything depended on God, work as though everything depended on you.” Compatibility, not dialectical tension.

How accurate!
On the equator things rotate. In the frame of reference of an observer on the north pole for example, the people on the equator accelerates constantly.

I always listen to a couple of quotes, then come back for more. I need to chew, savour, and digest them. And with some luck and efforts, assimilate some too.
“There are many roads that lead to the same place.”
-Apache Proverb
“Only the U.S. Government would think that cutting a foot off the top of a blanket and sewing it on the bottom will give you a longer blanket.”
-Native American Chief on Daylight savings
Yes and being conquered really sucks. -Evolution
@@briankfs The greatest warrior is one who conquers himself.
@@briankfs they were conquered because they didn't have a clock, turned up for the battle after it was over.
Stupid chief he doesnt get that daylight time has more value.
P J they weren’t conquered. You think of battles and strength. Instead there was only lies and weakness. The Europeans could not make them slaves so they genocided most of them. Lots of creepy ignorant comments on this thread.
New video for my daily meditations thank you!! Love this narrator Chris Lines, the man makes everything epic.
“Always walk through life as if you have something new to learn and you will.”
- Vernon Howard
"Don't sell the Sun to buy a candle." I needed this so much right now, good job guys thanks a lot!
🤔 It's meaning plz??
Sun- The happiness, love, joy and fullfilment within our soul.
Candle- Love, care, attention and validation from others.
I loved, Do not kick away the canoe that helped you to cross the river.... So true, so beautiful... Every other proverb is also amazing. Thank you. God bless.
But instead throw it to the sea lol
And folks thats how you become a hoarder.

You are stronger than you think you are!
You can always turn things around!
Tough times dont last, tough people do!
You can do it!
When the Tough People hit you, you’re just outa luck.
The comments here...
The sadness, the joy.
The worry and the relief.
And the love and support between people who have never and will probably never meet, reflect the very best of humanity.
Where love reigns, the impossible may be attained. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. Ecclesiastes 1:18 KJV
So true. Ignorance really is bliss sometimes
"Knowledge" may 'help , but it's NOT "Wisdom" !!

"If the child is wasteful, why save money? If the child is able, why save the money even then?" -- from Bihar, India
What a fantastic voice over.
Love is like water, it flows and flows not knowing when it's gonna end, but when it does, there will always leave a mark
A shared joy is a double joy
I like Charles Oakley's " If it ain't broke, don't break it."

RedFrost Motivation, one of the Chinese proverbs in this video has struck a real cord with me tonight...
"To succeed consult three old people."
I have two lifelong disabilities. Left sided cerebral palsy and a 33% brain injury from birth. Haven't really had any family and friends check in with one throughout 'Coronavirus Chaos'.
Thankfully we reached toward some local services and have been getting a welfare call pretty much every week since April via Chris, our town vicar, housing association befriending team member Terri, and Andrew, a brain injury charity worker.
They are all of a mature age and I'm only forty myself but their collective support last nine months has certainly helped a lot to make sure we don't go down a dark road. I'll forever be indebted to them. When seeing above quote it made Mr Seymour cry and shiver in equal measure. Thank You for including such a profound saying.
