I meant to clear this up earlier, but I figure now is a great time. What the heck do I mean by "wise old saws"?
Most people know only know the familiar definitions of saw. The first refers to the physical implement used to cut down trees; It was a very sharp saw. The second is the verb--the act of using a saw. He sawed the tree in two is a perfect example.
The second major definition? The past tense of the verb "to see". I saw red at the betrayal is a great example.
But now that we have the low hanging fruit out of the way, there IS a third definition. And that definition is...drum roll please..."a proverb or maxim". Remember the old saw: Oppositions don't get elected, governments get thrown out.
And this, dear readers is what I'm referring to. While I'm sure some would love a blog about tools, I'm going to focus on bringing to you the maxims, proverbs, and good ideas that I find useful. And I'm hoping you'll find them useful as well.
So stick with me! There'll be a lot of emotional venting, a lot of great life lessons, a lot of laughs, and more than a few wise old saws.
For now? I'm changing up the lyrics of one of my favourite songs. Hope to see you soon!
