Fire & Yang

Proverb

Get your ears pierced before the wedding starts.

Poem

When he takes wood for the fire
A man must use an axe!
When a man needs a wife,
He needs a match-maker!
But once he has got her,
He can’t burn for anyone else.

Meditation

Let everything have its own right time. 
This teasing poem makes a blunt point. 
The time for flirting and for making yourself attractive is before sommitment of marriage; 
thereafter, the external is less important than the intrnal.
So it is with all aspects or our life.
