Ecclesiastes 7:8-10

The Message

⁸ Endings are better than beginnings.
Sticking to it is better than standing out.

⁹ Don’t be quick to fly off the handle.
Anger boomerangs. You can spot a fool by the lumps on his head.

¹⁰ Don’t always be asking, “Where are the good old days?”
Wise folks don’t ask questions like that.
