Read Proverbs 26:3-5 Our verses are continuing to talk about the fool that we read about in yesterday's verse. When you carry on a conversation with a fool, you soon realize that you are wasting your time. For example: a fool will say something that doesn't make sense. You will think about what he said. Then you will explain to him why the thing that he said didn't make sense. But then the fool quickly says another crazy thing. You think about it and give him an answer. Before long you realize that it is taking you more time and mental energy to think about your answer than it is taking the fool to say his next words. You are just wasting your time. Just like verse four said, don't waste your time with foolish questions or answers. Spend your time thinking about useful things. Hang around wise people. You will be wiser if you do!
