Le cadavre d’un oiseau ne pourrit pas en l’air, mais à terre (Proverbe Douala – Cameroun). – Tout revient à son point de départ.
A bird’s corpse does not rot in the air, but on the ground (Duala proverb – Cameroon). – Everything comes back to where it started.
It reminds me of the phrase “what goes up, must come down” although the imagery is far more creative in this proverb.

Definitely. It’s interesting how that proverb was worded, yet it has a similar meaning.
