A Proverb a day gets you on your way!
Here is the Daily Dose for Tuesday, January 12, 2016.
Fools think their own way is right, but the wise listen to others. Proverbs 12:15
Never Gonna Learn
On of my favorite things in movies is the soundtrack. An awesome soundtrack makes can make an average movie great and an great movie world class. A great soundtrack not only moves the film along, but also puts music into our consciousness and brings the movie back to life any time we hear it afterwards. Soundtracks have produced some of the greatest songs that we know. Who will ever forget “My Heart Will Go On,” from Titanic? Others of us remember, “End of The Road,” by Boys II Men, but we don’t realize that it is from the soundtrack to the movie Boomerang. But a great soundtrack is not just about the hit songs, sometimes it is the underlying music that we don’t even realize is there.
For instance every main character in a movie has theme music. It is the music that you hear when they make their big move, or when they finally triumph. For instance we all know Rocky’s theme when we hear it. We all know Superman’s theme when we hear it. When we hear the character’s theme music we know something is about to happen, good or bad, but it identifies them. In real life, there is a group of people who all have the same theme song, “My Way,” by Frank Sinatra. These people are called fools. You see the fool believes that their way is right, always. No matter what, they are right and the thoughts and opinions of others do not matter at all. They are going to do it their way and that it that.
We should all have our opinion, and our positions. We should not be easily swayed from what we believe either. While both of those statements are true, only a fool sticks to their own way and can’t accept any advice from others. You see it is only a fool who is not willing to accept new information, receive new viewpoints, or change their opinion under any circumstances. Ultimately, a wise person does it their way, but they do it with a lot of help. A fool just does it their way.
Be Blessed,
Rev
