Thèid a h-uile nì chun a' bheòil

Everything goes to the mouth

(Said literally of children, and figuratively of anyone and anything that's resource-intensive or greedy)

A h-uile latha sona dhut;
Gun latha idir dona dhut!

Every happy day to you;
Without any unhappy days to you!

(A rhyming parting salutation that can be said in call-and-response style - like 'See you later, alligator; after awhile crocodile!' in English)

"Where there are two Signal chats with the same unauthorized information, there's often a third Signal chat with the same information. Plus a clear text message or mail in due time."

#Arabic #proverb:

يابن آدم - لو تجري جري الوحوش غير رزقك ماتحوش

('O, son of Adam, even if you run like a wild beast,
you shall not attain other than your Lot.')

A whakatauāki (#Māori #proverb), courtesy MetService's Pou Ārahi, Trevor Shailer:

Ehara te oranga i te tatari noa ki a pahure te āwha - engari ke ia he ako ki te kanikani i roto i te ua.

Life is not waiting for the storm to pass; it is for learning to dance in the rain.
