It is Inevitable that Two Things Will Rub Against Each Other | AFIAPodcast | African Proverbs

Greetings, Village!

The Proverb says: “It is inevitable that two things will rub against each other.”

Life is full of friction, both literal and metaphorical. The Zambian proverb reminds us that conflicts and challenges are inevitable, but it’s how we handle them that matters most.

When we face conflicts or obstacles, it’s easy to get discouraged and want to give up. But the Zambian proverb teaches us that these moments of friction can be opportunities for growth and learning. By embracing challenges and working through them, we become stronger and more resilient.
