wrong proverbs

The daily prompt asks – Share a proverb you think is completely wrong and make your case.

Blood is thicker than water. – That can be true with some family members but maybe not all. I’ve seen and been part of fractured families. I’ve had friends closer to me than family.

Don’t cross that bridge till you come to it. – Wrong, planning is important. If you don’t think ahead, you might not consider the options you have when you get to that bridge.

Every cloud has a silver lining – While a lot of them might, not everyone does. Just like storms, some roll in right behind one another with bad news.

Fall seven times, stand up eight. – I’m all for perseverance but see a doctor if you’re falling that much.
