Morning is always been a busy day for me. So I am in a hurry to drop off my kids to school ( I used to drive motorcycle because it more efficient and faster). But then my motorcycle was breaking down. Even I pull the gas, the motorcycle won't move at all.
Then my youngest child told me that my oldest boy had put water in the gasoline tank..
Doohhh....I am so fed up
Have you ever been in a hurry but there is an obstacle avoid you to do everything faster?

Oh hahaha! Your youngest child must have taught gasoline and water have not much difference. So what did you you with him? That reminds me of my neighbor. His grandchild (who was then nine years old), put water in his car's gasoline tank too. He did not know he did that. The next morning he drove his car to work. Well the car did run anyway but not that long. After few meters away from home, the car stopped and worse he was in the middle of the road. You can just imagine the trouble it gave him. So the grandchild tasted his grandfather's rod for the first time in his life.
Indeed it is when we are in a hurry that we meet various obstacles. It is when you are trying to make things faster that this and that will either break or stop. I think this is a test of patience. How we react in such situation would show how patient a person we are.

To avoid such Trial Testings, need to be cautious. You should have kept the gas tank locked and kept the key safely with you. However such tests are common and the world is not going to end with such tests.

hi ifa!
I am sorry to hear that your child put the water in gasoline tank, without bothering about its consequences and put you to inconvenience.
It has happened with me on some occasions when I started my bike in the morning to go to my office, I was that its Tyre was flattened. I had to take it to mechanic to get it repair and it wasted my 2 hours.

Yes, I was late in office and was marked as late. But I had no option but to get my bike set right before I could go to office.

Hi ifa
Like just 5 minutes back... I had asked a friend to hand me some items from the shop and he was in a hurry as it is weekend and he is going home. He said - come to the main gate of your house and pick up the packet. He reached the gate, honking his bike, and as I was to move to the main gate, my relative called on the cell from US(we had fixed this time and I almost forgot until the cell rang). I had to get back to room, search for the cellphone and by this time, the friend left (train timings)
As I missed him at the maingate... I have to wait till monday

Oh... LoL... Kids! They do it because of lack of action... Its the young blood... It hates sitting idle and doing nothing... You eldest one poured water into the gas tank, to know something. Probably he was curious if a vehicle runs on water... Ifa, dear, you need to talk to him... Explain to him, how this is going to cost you something and also, how you got late coz of him... Don't punish the kids.. If you understand 'em, they'll understand you too...
Take care...

Hey Ifa... I don't have a lot of experience... I put in my childhood experience here.. I was always punished and beaten up for my childish activities... I never could fully develope.. Today I'm 30, but my looks and more importantly my behaviour makes look like a college guy... They still think me to be a kid...
The point is, punishments or beatings don't do any good... They just turn us into evil...
Take care Ifa.. Love for youe kids...
