Proverbs 19

It took almost three minutes to read this collection of proverbs; not because there are many words, but because they deserve some time to soak in. The last words of this chapter caught my attention, because there have been times when I have needed and received that "slap to the face." What I am wondering is how foolish am I? There is no question that I have acted foolishly and God provided the necessary slap to get my attention. There are many wise words recorded in this passage, and the greatest expression of folly would be for me to ignore them all.
