A guest is such an interesting concept which is very difficult to give a clear definition because the one who receives guests may in fact be a guest himself perhaps a guest and the one who receives guests this is a very subtle state of mind with very thin boundaries.
This is probably why there are many comedy and not so comedy films about hospitality and guests since this is an inexhaustible topic for reflection a place where you can spin the situation as you want and you will not make a mistake in any case because such a situation can be quite real.
Guests can probably be right and wrong, and their correctness depends largely on your mood the time of day and a bunch of other variables.
For example a guest who came to you uninvited is compared to a Tatar in some proverbs they say that an uninvited guest is worse than a Tatar, meaning the raid of the Tatar-Mongol horde as a result of which cities were destroyed and tribute was collected.
But sometimes lol an uninvited guest is better than a Tatar... friends let's not offend the Tatars since probably among my distant relatives there are Tatars and if you think badly of them then you think badly of me lol.
Let's continue the wrong guest eats a lot talks a lot does not leave when you want him to and you are tormented by the thought of how to tell the guest that it is time for him to leave.
Also the wrong guest may be the one who agreed with you that he will come to visit you you prepared a lot of goodies to meet the guests but for some reason they could not come completely disrupting your plans to have fun.
In general the laws of hospitality are a very difficult science which not everyone can comprehend but if we want to maintain peace between the guests and the host we need to try to understand how to do this but first of all we need to understand who the guest is and who the one who is hosting the guests is sometimes this is very confusing.
There is another proverb a wise proverb that everyone who likes to visit needs to remember and it says that a guest can feel at home when visiting but a good guest should not forget that he is visiting.
Indeed sometimes it is very easy to lose the line and you begin to feel like the host not the guest for example when you are the first to see a flower meadow or a lawn with flowers blooming on it and you want to take a photo of some insects but so far there are no insects there except you.
Minutes pass and you feel more and more like a host who is waiting for late guests and starts to get nervous because the food on the table has already started to cool down lol.
But then someone knocks on the door and at that moment all thoughts about the wrong guests disappear and you run to open the front door.
A magnificent bumblebee can become such a right guest who may not have been invited to the party but seeing that you are bored, decided to brighten up your holiday with his presence.
The bumblebee turned out to be a very correct and tactful friend who buzzed when you had nothing to say to him and fell silent when you wanted to say something to him.
But you know this bumblebee ended up being a bit of an impudent guest lol and was not going to leave the flower.
He probably thought that since the other guests hadn't arrived he wouldn't leave until he'd eaten everything on the table and he didn't care that I had to go somewhere.
Then, I broke the laws of hospitality left the guest to finish his treats and went about my business.
