"Atansyon pa kapon"
And any time you are washing your hands, staying home, and applying social distance to avoid the spread of the COVID-19, say that, too. That means you are not cowardly, but cautious.
proverbs
Haitian people say this proverb to show the importance of experience. Even though some people are old and their methods are old fashioned, they still work. New comers, new ideas will need time to be experimented to know their result. They also say that even though we want to use new products, new ideas or supplies, we should hold the ancient ones as a backup in case that the new ones are not giving the expected result or present some kind of dysfunctions.
