I really find it difficult to find matching proverbs to my pictures...:(
Yes, maybe the other way would be better, having a proverb and making some picture to it, but this seems to be impossible...

Very interesting. Dont you notice? Our proverbs reflect the way of life of our people?

Thanks for the entry.

Thanx DGM! But: my pictures may reflect my way of life but the proverb is something I try to fit to my picture. It's a pure coincidence here...:)
