There's this neighbour of mine that I can't be in a rush to forget the pivotal moment my family and I had with them. It was an eye opener and junk of lessons learnt during their stay at the compound. Actually they weren't the first to settle in the compound but several people had occupied or used the apartment before they came in but the moment shared were indelible and very remarkable for me not knowing that I would have an ample opportunity like this to even share on a platform like this.
This beautiful neighbour of mine had a son and a wife loaded with some potential of making little house chops. She laughs sometimes uncontrollably with people outside and of course can create some jokes. I thought that's already a good representation of a personality that one could relate and work with.
When its said all that glitters is not gold, it therefore implies not everything you see that shines is gold. It also implies that the character of an individual is what defines him or her. There are people that outwardly they look harmless but when you engage them closely hmmm what oozes out of their live is not good at all.
Similarly, my neighbour's wife had a very character that had been seeking for expression all this while which I never knew. Just few months down the line, issues started coming up and her true identity started bubbling out. Little thing flares her up like a whirl fire. Please kindly note what really brings out the true nature of a man is pressure. You can attest that you really know someone when you have never seen him or her pass through difficulty or an unpleasant experience.
Her negative attitude escalated and even started getting the little ones scared in relating with her. I kept wondering, is this the first person I ever knew that was jovial? Hmmm you don't conclude that you know someone sharply like unless in the process of time,true identity shall be revealed.
The sudden display of her attitude is what led to her immediate eviction from the house without alacrity.
This action never went smoothly for me and really irritated me simply because I concluded this is a virtuous, peaceful and supportive woman but at the long run what I saw outside was different from what was inside. Good make up, beautiful dress outside but nagging, troublesome etc at home.
LESSONS
There are lot of lesson I have deduced from this short experience. They didn't start up to a week before relocating elsewhere.
- Never you be in a rush to draw conclusions over an individual. Time will unveil Evey hidden thing.
- Not all you see outside is same thing you would see inside.
- Be careful how you relate with people. Some have bad character and negative approach to life issue try to study them.
- Every human being have flaw but when worked upon you realised your will overshadowed everything.
