In a programme called ‘Fat Men Never Hunt’ there is a tribe who catch and forage as much food as they can, and when they find food they are very happy, they then store some and eat some and their wisdom lies in this and the fact that they are content with the little that they eat.
On the other hand some example of no wisdom being used are: The ‘fat men,’ in ‘Fat Men Never Hunt’ or the British who were with this tribe in the Kalahari desert were never content with their food. At home the ‘fat men’ would have ample food but would hardly ever be happy, in fact they ate because they were not happy. This is an example of Proverb 17.1 ‘Better to eat a dry crust of bread with peace of mind than to have a banquet in a house full of trouble,’ the ‘trouble’ is shorter life-span, diseases and a bad image of themselves.By Nathan

Very appropriate now that lent is upon us. Each morsel I put in my mouth will be a reminder Proverb17.1.
Thank you Nathan.
