THE SAYINGS OF THE ACHOLIS IN PARABALS WRITTEN BY (Okello Duncan Sunday Angoma).
SHORT PARABALS OFTEN USED BY THE ACHOLIS.
1. HAPPYNESS COMES FROM THE HEART.......If you want to offer something to a friend like a gift, it must be with sincerety and free will which may sometimes arise from a goodwill gaster you recieved earlier from this friend.

2. KAOS IN A BIG HOUSE IS FAR GREATER THAN THE ONE IN A SMALL HOUSE.......We often think that rich people or those with plenty have very few or no prblems at all, but this is not the case. Poor people own very few things and have almost no problem managing them and sleeps well be it day or night as opposed to rich ones who own lots of things and lost of sleep over worries of how to manage them. The more things you accumulate arround you the more worried you become.

3. THE DOWNER LEG OF A COW FOLLOWS THE UPPER ONE....FIRE GIVES BIRTH TO ASHES.........The younger generation often adopts the character of a elder at a home. If the elder is a thief, hunter, witch, strict person and so on. His children and grand children often take up his characteristics.It is therefore why we the Acholis teaches our children the importance of our culture and reminding them of the honor enshrined in it. A child who takes on a character different from his parents often behave in a unpleasant manner, which makes him untrusted among his people and there not relied on in building a future strong and stable home. People wisper his name everywhere and compare him to ashes the prduct of fire which has no use at all for anybody.

4. LET THE ONE IN BETTER SITUATION LAUGH.....IT IS BECAUSE OUR TEETH ARE WHITE THAT WE LAUGH.........That who thinks he/she has everything, happyness, or good life and look down on others or laugh at those in bad sitution-you never know you may be the next victim of abad situation. A poor person often have nothing and his voice is not at all heard among the multitude.
