My favorite author, George Bernhard Shaw said a very striking thing about life that each time I look at that quote I get so inspired and encourage, he said; #life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing!! Looking at that quote gives me immense joys. Now from todayās topics am picking option two (2):
Tell us about a time you learned a very valuable lesson. What was it, the circumstances around it, how did the learning process go and what was the result?
Wow! š³ if am correct thereāre five (5) questions in this one question šš¤£ okey letās do the sorting firstš.
- Tell us about a time you learned a very valuable lesson?
- What was the lesson learnt?
- What was the circumstances around it?
- How did the learning process go?
- What was the result?
Well........have learnt so much already and life has thought me some valuable lessons I wonāt forget in a hurry!
1.Tell us about a time you learned a very valuable lesson:
I was still in high school when I learnt my very first valuable lesson. I was staying with mom until I turned 12years and I left my mom to go stay with my dad in another state, while Staying with dad i began high school. My dad always goes out to work comes back at night, that was just how it was everyday so dad didnāt really have time for me at that tender age which I was still in need of supervision on my education and on my life, if it was to be mom who was always around even times where sheās not around when she comes back sheāll still fellow me up to know how it has been and what am facing but dad was just the opposite and I couldnāt do a thing about it, I just accepted my fate and just live life the way it comes. On my own I wasnāt really a spoiled brat š¤£ cause I grew up with mom and for that period of time she had installed good values in me already, as we all know in school especially high school thereāre lots of people with deferent style and way of life, when I mean deferent way of life I mean there characters, some are bad both in characters and in way and matter of doing things, so in such environments with such people one is bond to go astray at that point I just needed someone to constantly check up on me always to make sure I wasnāt in any sort of pressure but dad was just too busy and so occupied with work.
Now at school I started meeting people and I also start making friends too even in my class I had friend too and we sometimes walk hope together and most times on our way home from school theyāll start taking about girls and how they have sex with them at that point Iāll just keep quiet and pretend that I donāt hear them, they knew very well that I didnāt have a girl in my life and that I was just focusing on my studies because that was what I made them to understand, I had already promised myself and mom when she called through dadās phone to talk to me so she asked me to make her a promise to always focus on my studies and nothing else so that I was just living up to my promise and I Couldnāt also stay lonely in such a big school without having a friend to share my problems with, now on the other hand I was trying to keep the promise I made to myself and mom and on the other hand I needed a friend to share my problems with and to hang around with was just unfortunate that I end up with the wrong set of people, now I was left in a very tight and complicated spot so I just thought I could manage the both making friends and also keeping my promise.
They guys knew I wasnāt interested in all those kind of talks and they kept on hammering on it and later started taunting me that I want to be a sant and I was also getting uncomfortable with there taunts but I wasnāt bothered, day passed and they kept on saying I need a girlfriend but I told them am not just interested and I told them I donāt donāt just feel am ready for that now and immediately they jumped into concluding that am a weakling and that I was scared of girls and they also said I canāt because I donāt know how to, they just kept on assuming since that wasnāt the case at I wasnāt bothered I just had to let go and allow them think
Whatever will make them feel good!
It gotten to the point where I couldnāt take there constant taunts again, one of them told me he will arrange a girl for me I shouldnāt worry, I topped him from that too so on my one I decided to get close to a girl I just thought was nice tho she was pretty š her name was āAnnicaā we got so close that I stated call her Ani and she was fine with it and then my friend were for very happy with me.
Now my relationship with Ani grew deep, I began to fall in love with her at that time she was also in love with me too and the feeling was so beautiful, the feeling that am dating the most beautiful girl in the school she was very beautiful that I just considered myself so lucky and fortunate to have her in my life, now because of my relationship with her I started gaining respect from most of the students and my friends too, at a point I felt as tho I was complete but to be honest my relationship with Ani didnāt distract at all from my studies, I was doing well.
We later grew from liking each other to loving each other so deeply we were known by everyone. Now something happened, usually after school I go to her class to pick her up so we go home together, on our way we gist and itās always fun. One day on our way home she told me thereās this new guy that was admitted newly to the school she said heās been disturbing her for quite some time now, I wasnāt surprised giving the fact that she was beautiful so I told her she should Ignore him that itās just a normal thing when a girl is really beautiful and she smiled at me that was really lovely āŗļø but she insisted I talk to him I said well...... Iāll but let it be for now. I thought the guy will just eventually stop when she wonāt give him attention but he didnāt, in fact he kept on disturbing her, it was as if he was tempting me but I still kept quiet since my girl was still with me. One day after school I waited for her to come so we could go home together but I didnāt see her so I decided to go to check up on her in her class only to see the guy forcing him self on her trying to assault her and I was very angry that I started a fight with him and I beating him so badly I even lost it to the point where I broke his head by bushing him head to the walls š¤¦š½āāļøš¤¦š½āāļø not just that I bleeding him and some teachers rushed in and take him to the clinic to attend to his wounds while I was asked to go home that my fate will be decided by the principal the next day when his around. I left with Ani and she was very scared I managed to calm her down. The next morning reaching the principal office, he want even ready to ask why I fought with him he said that my say in the school was over he expelled me from the school and immediately I remembered that they was a promise I wasnāt able to keep šš. I disappointed everyone including myself.
Now from that incident I learnt that doing anything in anger and possessiveness and obsessiveness is very bad I was so possessive of her and also obsessed about her that was what drive me in starting up a fight with him, I mean I could have approached that matter in a deferent way,maybe take her out of that play with me but I choose not too but instead I put up a fight, And I had to faced the consequences.
2.What was the lesson learnt:
The lesson Learnt from all of that was never to get so obsessed about something or someone because when you are, the fear of losing that time to someone else might drive you to the point of doing something terrible in other to protect and secure that thing you have and that might get you into deepest trouble. So I learnt that to get very angry isnāt really good it can cause it can also drive you to the point of doing something terrible to another person.
3. What was the circumstances around it:
I was just in love and sometimes love can also drive one to do something so bad and terrible. Even when I thought of taking things easy I just couldnāt cause of love.
4. how did the learning process go:
I was expelled from my school, no one needed to tell me to stop and retrace my steps to the right part which was to be a good child and stay away from relationships that I wasnāt ready for.
5. What was the result:
Well....... am very okay now and am not thinking about anyone neither am I in any relationship at the moment and am not bothers about it, am just okey right now I have learnt my own valuable lesson in life and am not prepared to make such mistakes again am just fine for now š š š
