this week Mrs jack's literacy class have been doing proverbs.I did 4 proverbs and here they are.
To hide one lie,A thousand lies are needed.
- Whenever you lie, you have to project more lies to support the same - One thing leads to another, and before you know it one small lie has snowballed into a giant mash of lies - One lie leads to second, second to third and so on - A person then forgets where he started the lie and where it is going to end. He finds himself in a vicious circle of lie, from where there is no way out.

-One interpretation of this proverb is that it is better to live simply and enjoy the freedom it brings, than being a mighty king with many responsibilities.
