Hello everyone in the wonderful hive blockchain. I hope you’re all doing well and enjoying the weather wherever you are. Once again, I’m grateful to the hive learners’ community for their amazing initiatives.
The hive learners’ community has presented us with another amazing topic and I’m glad to be participating in it.
I grew up in a Catholic Church and a Catholic home, and one of the things we frown against is anger/annoyance. Anger is one of the deadly sins (pride, greed, anger, gluttony, sloth, lust, and envy). Personally, anger is the worst deadly sin. My mom would say “anger is satan’s child” I held that saying and it guided me in all my doings.
Anger if not used with the right force can lead to the destruction of a lot of things; not only material things but also relationships and friendships.
A few years back (when I was still in Junior Secondary School/high school), I had a very bad side that even I hated so much. My parents, my siblings, and my friends complained about my ugly side. And what was the ugly side? I get angry easily. Little things pissed me off. My mom even said I wasn't like this, but I changed when I came back from a boarding school (I used just 1 year in a boarding school).
Trust me, it had nothing to do with my zodiac sign. Thankfully, through my mom’s talks and words of advice, I was able to curb my ugly side.
Just as there's extreme anger that could destroy things, there's also mild annoyance. Unlike extreme anger, mild annoyance is just a feeling of irritation and is not capable of destroying things.
We came to this world alone; without clothes, shoes, bags, and even friends. But as we are older, we started making friends at home, in school, church, and other places. Some of these friends become our brothers and sisters while others choose to stay away from us due to one reason or another.
Some of them have become so close to us that we can't do without them. Even if we fight over something, after a few minutes, we’d forget about it and play as if nothing happened.
Do I have someone like that in my life?
I'm both an introvert and an extrovert. I think there's a world for that; ambient. Yes, I'm an ambivert. I don't have a problem making friends, talking in public, and socializing with people, and sometimes (well, most times) I just like staying alone in my room. And there are times I even find it difficult to talk to people and make friends.
I have lots of friends, but I'm close with a few of them (well, most times ). I just like staying alone in my room. And there are times I even find it difficult to talk to people and make friends.
I have lots of friends, but I'm close with a few of them, 2 or three, maybe? And out of 2, or 3, of them, there's just one that I can never get mad at no matter what.
ADEBISI
I don't know how we became close; seriously, one thing led to another and we found ourselves walking home to the school gate every day. Adebisi Emmanuel was my classmate when I was in high school. He was in commercial class while I was in art class, but we stayed in the same building because the school merged us.
He knows me very well. He knows what I can do and what I can't. He knows when something is wrong with me and what to do about it.
I remember the time we played football and he was on the opposing team. I played as a winger/striker while he was a defender. That day, he played against me as if we were mortal enemies. I know he was supposed to defend well, but I felt he was taking it too far. He broke Carmel's back when he fouled me and still laughed about it. I was so angry about it that I decided not to talk to him again😂😂. But after the match, he jumped on my back and we started playing again as nothing happened.
Trust me when I say this guy is one of the most annoying being on earth😂😂😂, but he knows the right time to do and say things.
He's one of my best friends (I have just two), and he is the only male best/close friend I have. It is very rare for me to call someone my best friend, but this guy made it very easy. He knows everything about me and he's the only one I can't get mad at for long.
THANKS FOR READING!
