Post Your Own Proverbs!

The Hartford Catholic Biblical School wants to post your original proverbs.

Successful entries will be written in the biblical style of the Book of Proverbs but will incorporate contemporary elements that address lived spirituality for today.

Within the limits of the editor's time and imagination, all suitable entries will be posted in this blog with a by-line (so please include your full name, as you prefer it to appear, with your proverb). Entries will not be returned or acknowledged, but successful proverbs will be posted on this blog.

Inspired by CBS Year Four Optional Challenge #1.3. Have fun with it!

And here's an example, by third-year student (and CBS resident rapper--see April 2010), Margaret (Marj) Hurley:

Better than glib promises are commitments honorably kept.

Email yours to: cbs@orehartford.org. Contemporary (and of course "clean") imagery and language encouraged!
