Thinking of this topic helps me remember something very embarrassing that happened to me as a student in the year 2015. If we check properly we will all agree that at one moment or the other we have faced situations in our lives as student that is so embarrassing, but there will always be a very good lesson to learn from such situations.

This is week 26 of HSCP and I want to share with the house one most embarrassing situations of my life as a student. I went back to school at age 38 that was after haven my last child. My first child at then was in senior class and I also got enrolled into the senior class with just one year ahead of my daughter. That alone was embarrassing both for Myself and my daughter, but that is not even what I want to share here for this prompt.
Because of the numerous house chores that I had to do every morning before going to school, I was always going to classes late. Assembly starts by 7:30, but for me I get to school few minutes to 8 when assembly is almost over. One day one of my teachers stopped me when I just arrived school and asked me to go in front of all the students half my age to kneel down because I was late. I looked around and saw all the students watching me to see what I was going to do. Most married women don't even go for assembly, but I try my best to go because I feel that there one or two things that I can learn there. Finally I kneeled down, but the moment I did it felt like the ground should open and swallow me alive. I was so ashamed of myself and so many questions began to flow through my mind. I started regretting why I had to go back to school. I also started thinking of stopping at the moment to avoid more embarrassment, I was going through a lot at the moment, both financial stress and emotional stress and it seems as if my teachers don't really understand me. But it was also a moment to learn humility. God help me to humble enough to respect that teacher and did what he asked me to. This was a moment I can't forget in a haste. I really thank God for that situation. After my high school I went on for my NCE program and from there I proceeded for my degree which ended last year. Most of those teacher became my junior in school and I was far brighter than they were in school. I met some of them during my degree days and I was their teacher, because I had to organize a reading class for some of my friends and some of them joined us because they noticed how fast we get answers to any question in class.
In conclusion, we all face embarrassing moment at every stage of our lives, but the question is what lesson can you take from it. The moral lesson is more important for me and I make sure to pick the lesson and move with no grudges.
