Life's Little Lessons

Life’s little lessons in the form of aphorisms, maxims, proverbs... are lessons from the sages, gurus, philosophers, and the wise men before us who had experienced and understood what life is all about. They are valuable lessons. If we could learn from them, we will be able to get a head start in life. We will be able to avoid some of the mistakes dotted on our life’s journey.

I recommend that people should take an interest in aphorisms. There is so much to learn from these terse sayings, and astute observations.

Have a look at following truisms and see what you think of them.
