Most of the time before going to sleep at night, I always make sure that I check every surrounding before going to sleep because there is no one like a security guard to always do that so for everyone staying in that apartment where I live we do that and most of the time, I am the one that instigate people to do that due to their nonchalant attitude towards it. Well most people say because I have things to protect, that is why I do like that most times, forgetting that they also have a life too and regardless they also have something to be stolen if the worst happens.
When I heard someone made this statement, I was so annoyed, and I felt like what is my business checking their surroundings at night when I am not the one employed to safeguard their lives. Instead, I just watch over my own surroundings, and then I go to bed. One thing I believe is that when the worse happens, no one will call me to be part of it, and that will be the most annoying part if anyone should call me to assist them in rescuing their lives.
Yesterday afternoon I was indoor doing my daily activities when I hear a sound from the main gate entrance and the most amazing part is that I can see people even from afar before entering inside the main entrance, then I can decide either to challenge them or not. But in this case I was just quit and was watching what this person has to plan to do. Not that I could not have gone out, but I wanted it to serve as a lesson to other so they can learn that we have the responsibility to safeguard our lives and properties when we do not have anyone to do that for us.

Even, when we have someone to do that for us, we still have the rights to always make sure we check and make sure that everything is in order because the person checking and safeguarding you is also a human. So this person came inside and checked through and so that there was no one watching, so it picked up something valuable from the entrance of someone in the apartment and started going. Immediately I could not bear it again, and I have to run out to rescue the person and called everyone out.

When they all came outside, they were very shocked to see that someone had come behind their back to steal their properties and no one could make a word because they knew I have warned them severally. Immediately I left there and left them all to it to settle their issues together and when they all came back, they were all giving kudos to me and vowed never to act nonchalant after they have learned their lessons. Sometimes it's good to be wicked to some people, especially when they feel they are wise, or they are using you to gain whatever they want. We just need to be smart and okay our games right.
