Chewa proverb of the day

Masiku adatsutsa buthu.

Time (the days) has proved the young girl wrong.

There was a young girl, but as time went on she grew up, and the time came when she became a woman and started evil. So also one can try and remain straight for some time, remain unmarried, but in the end that will change. Perseverance can last only so long, we will do evil.
