Season 1 Episode 299
North Winds
23
As surely as a north wind brings rain,
so a gossiping tongue causes anger!
24
It’s better to live alone in the corner of an attic
than with a quarrelsome wife in a lovely home.
25
Good news from far away
is like cold water to the thirsty.
Verse 23 explains that negative, bitter words only cause anger and division, much like how a cold winter wind can chap your face.
Verse 24 advises staying away from a nagging or argumentative person, whether it’s a woman or a man. Both nagging and being argumentative are habits that can spread.
Verse 25 reminds me of when phone calls were expensive and often brought bad news. Once, my Uncle Dan called just to wish my dad a happy birthday, and my parents were so relieved it wasn’t bad news. That call felt like refreshing cold water to a thirsty soul, just as the proverb says.
Think about this: What’s the best way to deal with a negative, argumentative person?
