One of my gifting projects at Burning Man for 2007 is going to be some brightly coloured, personalised fortune cookies for my nearest and dearest. But those given to random Burners needed that little something extra. I hit upon the idea of inserting Playa-related proverbs but was surprised to find their presence on the interweb non-existent. So I turned to Tribe and the resourceful and imaginative folks there, with this post. Can’t wait to see what they come up with.
In the past few years I’ve become interested in proverbs, particularly the cultural differences and similarities of proverbs from different countries; this all stemmed from an initial interest in African proverbs.
In many African countries a good knowledge of proverbs and the good use of them is greatly respected.
