We are already finishing the month of May 2022; and time is so tight to the point that we are almost halfway through the year. However, the rains, which should already be present, have taken a long time to arrive definitively, as they are waiting for the ideal moment to approach, stay and nurture Mother Earth and all the beings that inhabit her. The world goes on, every day with more strange things, more oddities, and more conflict; so there is no alternative, but to try to improve our little piece of the world, make it more coherent and happy, sometimes a difficult task, but let's do our best.

And to make the world a little better, today I bring another issue of the series "Five Wise Venezuelan Sayings", in this case number 44. I have been making these publications for more than a year, and my intention with them is conserving and disseminating a cultural element that is important to my people, such as proverbs. I reiterate that the proverbs presented here are NOT my authorship, but a product of the Venezuelan oral tradition, and I also resort to the bibliography that is reviewed in this post; however, I did elaborate its presentation and analysis. If you want to know more about Venezuelan proverbs, at the end of this writing you will find the links to the first 43 issues.
