YORUBA ADAGE ABOUT GIVING

in #culture6 years ago

MAXIM

In Yoruba: Bi ode ba ro'se ro'ya, bi o'ba pa eran ko ni fun enikeni je

English Translation: If a hunter considers what it takes to make a kill in the forest, he will not share the meat with anybody

USAGE

This adage is used to encourage giving culture

FURTHER EXPLANATION

In the stone age, it takes a lot of effort to make a kill, so if all the hunters at the time think about is the stress involved in it, then they wont share with the clan. The message is about giving, learn to give without grumbling and without expecting a thing in return. Do have a good evening!

Generosity is a gift, for we get to share the joy of something hard earned with those we care about, be them family, friends or strangers. :)

I wouldn't have been able to capture it more beautifully. Thanks for your input.

Generosity is indeed a language that is audible to the deaf and visible to the blind!

I actually have an Aunt who refused to pay my tuition or support me just because she had to struggle so hard to be successful. smh!
