A proverb a day: Proverbs 5:22-23 -Stay away from bad women

The entire chapter of proverbs5 is a must read. It gives wisdom concerning the immoral woman and to stay away from her. The crux of the matter I believe is in the final two verses:
“An evil man is held captive by his own sins; they are ropes that catch and hold him. He will die for lack of self-control; he will be lost because of his incredible folly.” Proverbs 5:22-23 NLT
Death comes because of lack of self-control. Be sure not to blame someone else when the responsibility is really yours.
Be wise.
A proverb a day: Proverbs 30:10 -Slander gets you no where.

“Never slander a person to his employer. If you do, the person will curse you, and you will pay for it.” Proverbs 30:10 NLT
I think in the course of our living we for the most part are trying to make ourselves look better. Getting degrees, big homes, fancy cars, better positions in life. But the worst thing you could do is gain these wonderful positions in life by someone else’s downfall.
Just some advice. If it is not life or death, keep your mouth shut, you’ll get further ahead in the long run.
Be wise.
