African Proverb #2

To me the African Proverb Wood may remain ten years in water, but it will never become a crocodile means that no matter how long something remains it won't change. Everything is meant to be itself and nothing more. This African Proverb is commonly realized throughout life. An example would be that a dog will never become a cat because it was born to be a dog. Another example is a computer can stay at a technology store but never upgrade to a laptop.
