  • Ireland is one of my favorite countries.
    It was very nice and interesting to create a video that contains the wisdom of the Irish people.
    I hope this issue will be useful and informative for you.

      @@jamescool7419 The voice actor is "desperately unrehearsed" since he declaimed "lives" as one would say "one lives" and not as "a cat has 9 lives."
      If you speak it the latter way, the saying should go: "8 lives for the man and 9 lives for the woman."
      It is deeper than I am, for I am a gael of scots (tartan for ervin) and not gael of Eire (Ireland) but perhaps it means that women generally live a little longer than men?
      After that, you're on your own, beats me. Direct any other prayer requests to St. Paddy, saying "Erin go bragh."
      All the best!

      Love is a two way interaction. Only the ratio is not always equal. But to marry someone whom you dont love at all is a kind of stupid drama that you have to act in front of your spouse, family members and friends. The pain is within you although your spouse gives a lot of money. Unless you are a true gold digger.

    He who hesitates is lost
    A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

    I am Irish and recognise only 5 of those max. Here are some: Don't marry for money, just love where it is; Long runs the fox; You're a long time dead; The Titanic - it was all right when it left here; She has a face that would sour milk; He would pick a fight with his own shadow; You couldn't believe his oath; She was goin' that fast, she was meetin' herself on the way back; She would sell her own mother; He was as skinny as two yards of pump water; You can't fatten a thoroughbred. Sure, I could go on all night - that'll have to do ya for now!

      @@annek1226 Yes, they did. I had two ancestors come from Ireland only they were convicts. The German, Scottish & English were free settlers. The Irish ones were young, fell in love, finished their sentences, got married & had 9 children. I like to think they used these sayings on their children, because all bar one turned out well.

    I usually don't hold back my tongue when I'm around a friend, since it shows that I'm just true, not mean. It's better that I'm the one who will remind them on what to change for themselves, than being gossiped around by those other friends of them who, at the same time, smiling in front of them. 🙂
    It became my principle in friendship. 🙂

      Well... to quote the video, "Better the coldness of a friend than the sweetness of an enemy."
      Cold hard facts from a friend? Sweet sh*t you want to hear from someone to stick you in the ass??? Maybe???
      It's "wit" technically and not every quote necessarily applies everywhere to every situation in everyone's life. ;o)

      That’s a bad recipe for marriage. I think there needs to be a mutual love and respect. Keep others out of your marriage and always believe the best about your spouse. My husband is smart, strong, loyal and extremely hard working. I know how blessed I am to have him so the only ones allowed in my marriage are God, him and I.
