A Stitch in Time Saves Nine
Ans:
The phrase ‘A Stitch in Time Saves Nine’ basically emphasizes the importance of fixing things on time to avoid further problems in life. This holds true for every person in every situation. We must all complete our tasks and solve our problems in time to prevent them from growing and burdening us.
The proverb ‘A Stitch in Time Saves Nine’ holds relevance in our personal lives. We are expected to fulfill various responsibilities as people. We are expected to obey and respect our elders, maintain our relationships with our parents, siblings, relatives, and friends, and grow into good human beings.
This can only be done if we are disciplined and take things seriously. Only if we are particular about our lives will we be able to fulfill all these expectations. We may have clashes in our personal relationships. These clashes may be over any big or small issue. If we do not resolve these in time, they may grow bigger and bigger with time and negatively impact our relationships. Many people refrain from putting any efforts toward resolving such problems initially and regret it later as the differences among them grow bigger and become almost irreparable.
Similarly, they keep procrastinating and do not work on improving themselves while there is still time. Such people often repent later. A person who does not understand the importance of resolving things in time and leading a disciplined life always lags behind and develops a feeling of dissatisfaction.
