What's the best advice your parents gave you growing up?

[Amazonian]

Amazonian has parents of course, I am afterall only human. Anyways what are some of the best advice that you have gotten from your parents?

@5 years old: "Ka fiirso intaadan falin"
@10 years old: "Shimbirbo shimbirkiisuu la duulaa-"
@15 years old: "Nimaan wax baran ma noolaado"
@20 years old: "Intaad yartahay guurso"
@25 years old: "Africa lacag udir waryaa-"

But my favorite of'em all came from my mother and she said to me at a very young age, "Waryaa Amazonian waligaaa naag qurux haku dooran"

My aabo used to say "diintadaa ha dumaaniin"

My mother always used to say: "Never forget your deen & wadan."

She used to also constantly talk about Siad Barre being a righteous leader and that the Isaaq "Way edeb daranyihiin."

I can grow one but I don't prefer it, I usually trim or completely shave it.

One quote which is stuck to my head is a Ahmaric Proverb that a Somali Elder once said : የሚያሳድደው አይሁን የሚባረረውም ይሁኑ which basically means, don't be the chaser, be the chased.

 

[قوة الشرطة الصومالية]

Naag Somali guurso.

My dad used to say to me....don’t be a sheep, think for yourself.
