A Moment Mistake With A Lifetime Lesson.

One important fact to note is that regret comes from the consequences of our decision and for today we would be talking about those decisions that we took that led to regret and how those regret got a toil on us or shaped us.

I was a playful kid while growing up and what added to it again was the fact that I had siblings to always play it both those who were older than me or younger than me, most atimes when we get back from school we would be left at home all by ourselves to wash our clothes, eat, do our assignment and take a nap, other times we would be left alone on Saturdays while my parents go to the shop, so that fateful Saturday we were left alone at home and I was the one that was asked to prepare afternoon food.

Quiet alright I was already preparing it and while the food was still on fire I had already picked a quarrel with my brother and just as usual we took it as a play until it got alittle bit dangerous where we started hitting each other, when it seemed like he was getting control over me I stood up with all force went into my room and got my heels to use and fight too, while throwing punches at home that never got him I then mistakely use the shoe and hit him at the back of his head, immediately I saw blood rushing out and I was lost on what to do, I had to make him use his hands to cover the place.

Omoh I was sweating from nowhere plus I started crying and saying see blood see blood, I never knew that small quarrel would led to this if not I would have just shouted and left everything, I was even begging him to eat the food I cook because at that time I did all I could to bribe him not to tell on me, it was when my neighbor heard my cry that he came in and immediately rushed my brother to the clinic, that was a worst day in my life and throughout that day I lost appetite for food all I wanted was my brother to come home safe, I received the quarreling of my life when my parents returned home but in all these I got something that I used for the rest of my existence up till now.

The devil seizes any opportunity to walk in and push us to do things we never dreamt of doing all because we have given him the leverage, after then whenever I am quarreling or fighting I am conscious that even a push can lead someone to the floor which may incurr severe injury, looking back at that scenario I always wished I had not run to pick my heels, regrets are painful and it always comes with "had I known", I pray we make wise decisions henceforth.
