Invitation to Learning LIFE Lessons the FUN Way

Invitation to learn LIFE Lessons The Fun Way.
It is good for your well-being needless to say!

The Game

Each of the Wise Sayings is scrambled in terms of letters and words in the saying. Your task is to unscramble each letter and words in the saying eventually to reveal the entire saying upon which you can reflect to learn an important life lesson. An example is given below:

ktirse | het | si | tho | iwhel | noir
                                                                       English Proverb

When we think and scrutinize each word in the proverb, we can unscramble as follows:

strike                  the                 is                   hot                      while                        iron

Unscrambling the whole sentence we get an English proverb that carries a useful message:
                           Strike while the iron is hot

     Now Exercise Your Mind!
