I make it a point to read one proverb daily and try and relate it with what I am doing for that day. On several occasions it has kept me balanced and grounded, as well as, with assisting some of my peers with some of their trials and tribulations that they may be facing. I enjoy the explanation of the proverb if I don't really understand what the true meaning is. The explanation is explained in length. I just purchased the Lifetime for $12.99.
