Gentlemen and Ladies, you are once again welcome to my blog.
Today, I'm inspired to write on the need to Avoid Ending With Had I Know. And I'm so sure you will get inspired by this great piece.
At some point in life people do say had I know I wouldn't have done this or that. But the big question here is, is it true they don't really know their actions will birth it consequences?
The phrase 'Had I know' is always a point of regret. It's a point in life where people come to the realization of the wrong act or decision they took which they felt they shouldn't have taken or make such decision in life. Had I know is a point in life where people cry for their actions or feel bad of the decisions they made some years or time past.
Do you know that had I know can be avoided? If it can't be avoided or prevented then they victims wouldn't have realized their wrong actions to the point of regretting why they took such actions.
But before going through ways on how it can be prevented, let me share with you about some people I know who ended up with had I know. While I was in the University, there is this Coursemate of mine that always smoke and drink alcohol. I adviced him severally to stop smoking and drinking. Not only that, I always tell him the effect and danger of it but he wouldn't listen to me, saying everything I'm telling him is just story for the gods. And that I don't know watsup. He went further to say he is in his youthful stage so I should allow him to enjoy it before it will pass him by. He became so addicted to it that he don't longer attend lectures. While in 100 level he was doing well. But this addiction made him to have so many carryover in our 200 level. While we were going to 300 level he had probation and remain in 200 level. We later graduated and he's still in 200 level. After my NYSC, I one day met him. After we greeted, I asked him if he's now done with studies? He nod his head in regret and said he has been expel from the school. That he was caught with exams malpractice. And he said he's currently struggling to survive cause this addiction of smoking and drinking has affected his body system so bad. He further said, had it been he listen to my advice he won't be at this stage right now. He said he is really regretting his actions. I really felt bad for him but there is nothing I can do at his stage. I only encouraged him and left. If he could have listen to me he would have avoided ending with had I know.
Also, there is this lady in my area that is living a reckless life. Her parent struggled with her severally to change to become a better person but she wouldn't listen. I know of elderly people who also called her attention but she still didn't listen to them. She is always slaying and feeling she is the most beautiful girl in the area. She always hang out with bad guys who have money.
To cut the story short, she later got married and couldn't give birth after some years. The husband was so disturbed and took her to the hospital and conducted a test for the both of them in order to know what the problem is.
When the result was out, it was discovered that she had so many abortion and the last one she did damaged her worm and so she can't give birth. That happens to be the end of their marriage. The husband chased her away. And she returned to her father's house regretting her former actions which is now affecting her present life.
Now how can one avoid had I know? you should know that your actions of today will affect your tomorrow either negatively or positively. So you need to live wisely. Avoid every negative actions or behavior, cause it will always result to regret.
To avoid had I know one need to be very intentional on his/her choice of action today.
Always be open for correction and listen to advice from people. For it is said that he who love knowledge love correction.
Thanks for reading through.
Do have a great day ahead.
