Foolish Vomit
October 16, 2007
Albert Einstein has an interesting quote:
Interesting. I wonder if he read his Bible because it talks about it as well.
- Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Proverbs 26:11 BBE
(11) Like a dog going back to the food which he has not been able to keep down, is the foolish man doing his foolish acts over again.
While it sounds disgusting, have you ever watched a dog eat to much, get sick and then eat it and get sick again. It is not an uncommon thing. While I think dogs are wonderful and beautiful, in some ways they act just plain dumb. And so does the foolish person. He keeps trying to do the same thing over and over again and hoping things will change.
How about the way we do things. Do you treat your spouse the same way every day, hoping that he or she will change to meet your needs? Doesn't work does it? Do you want friends but do the same thing to get them every time and wonder why you do not have them? These are only a few examples, you will have to look into your own life to see if you are doing things as a fool would.
