INTRODUCTION

Experience in life is a process everybody must go through no matter how careful we are it is now left for an individual to either learn from it or not, when we fell victim of something we should not sit and start thinking of a fool we have been but rather we should sit and learn from it, every situations that happens has a silver lining under it.

Experience 1

Oneday a course mate of mine came to visit and accidentally a friend of my neighbor came to advertised her product ( she sells shoe, cloth and bag) my course mate check her goods out and found somethings she loves and decided to buy everything amount to #30,000 unfortunately for her she was not with cash or her browsing phone to transfer the money the girl selling the product refused to release the goods to her on the account of no way to trace her if she refused to pay her my course mate beg me to stand in as her guarantor which I did without thinking twice to cut the long story short my course mate refuse to pay all she did is tell one story to another the girls threatened to take legal actions if I did not pay the money to avoid trouble and prevent stain on my reputation I used my feeding allowance and borrow from a friend to pay the girl her money.

What I learnt.

This experience makes me understand that before you stand as a guarantor for someone know the person very well and her reputation, also have the means to pay back in case the person default and refused to pay imagine there is no way I can raise the money to pay the girl back I might be arrested and my reputation destroy.

My advice to someone going through this.

It can be painful to paid for what you did not use or benefits from, refusing not to pay also is like tell the world that your character is the same as the initial debtor, you have given your word already by standing as a guarantor stick to your words with time you will get over the pain.

Experience 2.

Immediately I finished school I decided to go to a private hospital to work as a voluntary worker pending the time I will get a job. I started the job in December last year. I was sick last two weeks so for that week I did not go to work during that week I met the owner of the hospital in town and he asked why I did not go to work I told him I was sick so he ask me to see him the next Monday on getting to his office he asking some questions and he order the accountant to place me on monthly salary, I was very happy.

What I learnt.

Staying at home doing nothing will not do any good leave your home and do something even though you won't get anything from it financially by doing so you get to see opportunities to a greater level. If I have stay at home doing nothing by now I will not have any job I am doing.

My advice to someone going through this.

Even though you are not notice or encourage at your place of service with time the reward will come it might even be from a complete stranger observing you for a long time. Be deligent and hardworking it always paids at the end.

I was sick and I was in the hospital receiving treatment. During that period in school, there is this practical and program I was supposed to attend and I don't want to miss it for any reason I signed against medical advice and left the hospital for school ( not that the school force me to attend) when I got there my system change that I couldn't comprehend anything the lectural was saying after the practical I decided to go for the other program since there time is very close when the program was going on I fainted and was rush back to the hospital.

What I learnt.

My health is very important than anything else in this world and I should always try to maintain my health and listen to my health care provider instructions. I ended up not gaining anything from the practical and the other program I went for.

My advice to someone going through this.

Never leave the hospital against medical advice it is very dangerous, life will continue if you are there or not so fight to be alive first before thinking about some duties you are supposed to perform.

My plans for 2023

This year will be a great year because I have decided to learn from all my mistake over the years. I plan to build my passion which is business, take my drugs correctly and follow my diet to avoid visiting the hospital often except for medical checkup. I will build a very strong relationship with my family members.

I invite @blue0, @bimbo45 and @garybilbao to engage in this engagement challenge.

Sort:  

@jennyvic09, Very unpleasant experience friend in which the person you trusted decided to act dishonestly and not pay the money they owed.

You made a great effort and looked for a way to pay off the debt.

Which surely after having solved that unpleasant situation you felt happy and calm to have been able to solve it in a good way.

There are many people who act dishonestly like this but I tell you that they pay for it here in this world, divine law reaches them.

It's good that you made that decision to work even without earning any salary, and even though you got sick and couldn't go anymore, life presented you with the opportunity to see the owner of the hospital on the street.

Which was a blessing. Since he already hired you as a permanent staff at the hospital, that's because you did a good job as a volunteer.

Without a doubt our health is priceless, our body is the temple of our mind, we have to take care of it because if we get sick and lose our health. Our life will be in danger.

Thank God you managed to recover and now you have that experience that you know the value of health and life.

Nice plans what you have for 2023, and without a doubt the main one is to maintain your health and ties with your family.

I say goodbye wishing you have a happy day.

Surely everyone will get the reward for their act either good or bad, law of karma will always prevail. Health is wealth and I will never joke with it again no matter how important the person or occasion may be. Thanks for dropping a valuable comment.
