Old Sayings
I can't think of the word that should be in the title for this post. So I chose to call it old sayings. Maybe someone will know the word that should be up there. I don't know if anyone else has heard any of these and please feel free share them with us. 1. Stepping On Toes - means I don't want to hurt your feelings, anger you, or even humilate you but I want you to listen to what I have to say. 2. Walking On Eggshells - means you are in trouble and don't understand the consequences you are about to face. 3. Don't Count Your Chickens Before They Hatch - means don't look for something to happen that may never happen. 4. Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover - means you never know what is on the inside of something until you look. 5. Letting The Cat Out Of The Bag - means you are no good at keeping things quiet or to yourself. 6. Penny For Your Thoughts - means you are curious to know what is one someones mind but it is not worth much. 7. Don't Hold Your Breath - means most likely it is not going to happen so give up. 8. Chip Off The Old Block - means someone is comparing you to someone else or something. 9. Crying Over Spilt Milk - means you feel bad that it happened and can't let it go. 10. Walk A Mile In My Shoes - means to put yourself in someone elses place for a while. 11. It's On The Tip Of My Tongue - means you know what you want to say but can't think of it at the moment.

They are called maxims or sayings. Authors are unknown and they just arose from folklores. They are universal sayings and are recognized around the world. Thanks for the informative post. God bless.
