I would like to continue sharing Russian expressions.
Because I find in them a lot of great meaning. And I believe in the power of Slavic culture.
Утро вечера мудренее.
That means : ''The morning is wiser than the evening.''
I would explain it in the following way : When you have something to do in the evening, but you're tired to do it, it's better to do it the next day, or just to move that to another day. Because we shouldn't force sometimes circumstances.
Also, it's good to go to sleep earlier and save your energy and health. Or sometimes even to take a break from the hard work you do. Because you may come back to it with better energy and new ideas. That way the work will be even better done.
This is my entry to #blurtep , where we share our local expressions and proverbs.

Sometimes it is found in Russian folk tales:
Ivan Tsarevich is given a task, and he is grieving, not quite understanding how to complete it! To this, Vasilisa the Wise consoles her chosen one: "Do not be sad, Ivan Tsarevich, the morning is wiser than the evening."
During the night, a fabulous magical girl solves all of Ivan's problems herself, and in the morning Ivan only enjoys the solved problems.
Thus, Vasilisa shows that there are no unsolvable problems.
Well, maybe she is very cool =) .
Although all this looks, if you think about it, not very pedagogically! Especially for children, to whom we read these fairy tales).
