Ever heard the saying, "The knife you lend returns either clean or with blood"? It’s an old Georgian saying, and it’s pretty interesting when you think about it. Basically, it means that when you help someone or lend them something, they might either come back to you without any trouble or with a problem. Think about lending a friend some money. If they pay you back on time, great, it’s like the knife came back clean. But if they dodge you or make excuses, it gets messy—like the knife with blood. So, next time you’re about to help someone or lend something, just be mindful. Make sure you trust the person or at least know what you’re getting into. It can save you a lot of headaches later on.
