African Proverb 2

"Cross the river in a crowd and the crocodile won't eat us."

I think that proverb means to never follow after someone. I reason I say that is because following someone else can get you into a lot of bad things. For example, if your following someone at the wrong time and do something bad, but one didn't do anything, and one did, and if the police finds both then the both of yall will be going to jail. Therefore, basically what I'm saying is to take responsibility for your own actions. Bad things happen to people when they follow someone and it';s at the bad time. That proverb can be used in my everyday life because I don't follow after people I'm my own self, and if i ever want to follow somebody, i'll think twice and realize it's the wrong thing to do.
