LOOK AND LEAP!

LOOK AND LEAP!

Whoever came up with this saying must of had their eyes closed...or they could of been thinking of jumping off a high or even from low place? You have to have your eyes opened in order to know where you're going. "You should always look before you leap." It could even fit some those bad drivers on the street that you, or I run into everyday! This saying is suppose to be helpful as when one might be taking risks. Looking meaning to take a whole observation of what ever you're looking at and then leaping in with a full force go! This saying can be beneficial when you are going on a trip, or traveling someplace you've never been. Then there's the preception of taking a look at all angles of business or even personal relationships. Many times we don't anaylze what we're getting into. The saying can have other points of value like looking to see where you'll land when you leaping off the to something else. You just might change your mind --don't leap without a look first. I'm looking and leaping to think of other ways to describe this saying, "How about looking before you leap into that cool swimming pool? " If I leap out now you might have a way you can describe your own way to look and leap. I'll stick to safety only looking to leap into things I'm rather certain about. Like Bubbles!

Bubbles are safe...LOOK..... OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO00000000...%
LEAP! Bubbles blow.. OOOOOooooo....

Look have a leap into a nice day! ..."Don't take no wooden nickels."

I have always heard the phrase as "Look before you leap".

Must of??? Have. As in "this saying must have had …" Or "this saying must've had …"

Just here to help.

I see that you both are looking.. and leaping in to help me out.

@Helen, Go back and count down to line five. I wrote..."You should always look before you leap." Unless you are referring to just leaving out pre of:
"You should always..." The phrase may vary from person to person.

@Craig...You looked closely too, ..."I wasn't writing correct grammar in that sentence." I just leaped in and started writing. I appreciate your observance, correction and the help. "Sometimes I don't do grammar/spell checks and other times I do."
BUT....
I'm always grateful to friends willing to help. [Smiles]
