Sometimes people wake up in bad mood and being stressed. Sometimes it is difficult to get a person without mental anguish. Most of the students get stressed and you would see them in class thinking instead of concentrating.When people grow old they become forgetful, and sometimes make mistakes.
This happened to one of my classmates who did a funny thing. She woke up late and wanted toget to school early. She had 20 minutes to prepare herself, take breakfast and rush to school.she prepared herself in a hurry and swiftly got into the dinning table.
In there,got her mum who served her the tea.There were two containers of sugar and salt on the table.The containers were same in colour. Due to her hurry she took the container containing salt and put one spoonful of the salt in the tea. Guess what? mmmmh.....the tea was too bitter!!! She rushed outside and spat it. she washed the cup and repeated the same mistake again.She had no alternative but to go to school without breakfast.
We should be accurate in all our doings.we should be sober always. We always mess up because of carelessness. Remember always the adage that states " Hurry Hurry Has no Blessing".
That's a funny story - and I can see how it would happen. What a waste of 2 cups of tea, eh!
ReplyDeleteIsn't there a Swahili phrase which says something about this - haraka haraka sina baraka? I don't know if I have the grammar quite right...
Thanks for sharing your story, look forward to hearing more!

What a wonderful story.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good reminder to us all to slow down, pay attention to details and be mindful and purposeful in everything we do.
Looking forward to more stories!
