It was a bright Saturday morning, I wakeup all tired and lazy.This was because a night before I went out with some friends and we had some really good time and this got me exhausted.
Am currently...
Am currently residing in an army barack and it is the custom of all households there to partake in a general sanitation every Saturday morning.(they call it fatigue).I was just too lazy so I decided to stay put in my room. I never knew there was going to be any consequences for my actions because I was new in the environment.
**After having my... **
After having my beauty sleep(as I called it), I realized that the electric power supply is gone, and it was just 11am,it was very uncommon to loose power supply at this time of the day.but I felt "maybe the power source (transformer) went bad
**when I came out.... **
When I came out from my room,i discovered that others around me was having power, and I was the only one affected.i approached a young lady who I thought could give me a satisfying explanation,but she couldn't even understand english.
The situation became....
The situation became frustrating which lead to a little amount of vexation because my cell was almost out of juice.While I was still trying to converse with the young lady, a friendly looking woman came walking by and I asked her what she taught might be the problem.She told me the power source was OK 馃憣 and the fault was from me. She told me the military men must have disconnected my power because I refused to present myself for the morning fatigue.
i felt furious and victimized.....
I felt furious and victimized,i started complaining to her how bad and rigid the military men are and how I usually come but was too tired that day. Telling her this things made me feel I was right and they were wrong. But all the while I was talking she just kept quiet and watched me complain.she felt my frustration.
**after all my..... **
After all my murmuring she told me "change this attitude and show some gratitude"...i was perplexed,i never knew she was one of the military personnel.she told me how ungrateful I was and how she would have locked me up in the guard room were not she been in a good mood.
**after she left... **
After she left, I pondered on the words she said about me not having gratitude,it all dawne on me. I wasn't appreciative.over here in the Barack I get almost everything free. Accommodation,water,power supply etc. And I was required to do just one thing.clean the environment,but yet I defaulted, I was really showing no gratitude.
