Bonjour Mark,

Here are some examples which I hope will help a bit more:

Être = to be:

Je pense donc je suis = I think therefore I am 

Je suis là I am here

Suivre = to follow:

Je suis la parade = I follow the parade

Je suis la route indiquée = I follow the highlighted route

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
