I decided to use myself as a character in this story am about to unfold, but whichever way it is, there is one message I would love you to grab from it.

Last week, I was at the Emirates airport in
Dubai, United Arab Emirates ready to fly
home.
I got to the airport at exactly 13:00GMT.
On getting there, the lady at the airline (Fly
Emirates) told me that there would be a delay
in
my flight for 3 hours. I decided to buy a
packet
of cookie and a leadership book to while away
time.
I sat down on a chair, reading. Beside the arm
of the chair was the packet of cookie. Next to
me was a man, who was reading a novel.
I opened the pack of cookies, took one out
and
to my surprise, the man next to me also took
one out of my cookies. I felt irritated but said
nothing.
I just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the
mood, I would punch him for daring!”. For
each
cookie I took, the man also took one too. This
was infuriating me but I didn’t want to cause
any scene.
When only one cookie remained, I thought:
“huhu.. What would this abusive man do
now?”
surprisingly, this man taking the last cookie,
divided it into half, giving me one half. Ah!
This
was too much! I was extremely pissed and
angry
now! In a huff, I gave the man a dirty slap
and
walked away.
When I sat down in my seat, inside the plane,
I
looked into my bag to take my phone, and to
my surprise, my packet of cookie was there...
untouched and unopened!
I felt so bad and ashamed of myself!! I then
realized that I was wrong... I've forgotten that
my cookie was in my bag.
So the man had divided his cookies without
feeling angered or bitter, while I was very
angry,
thinking that he was eating my cookies.
And now, there was no chance to explain
myself, nor to apologise.
There are 3 things you cannot recover.
1. The word...
...after it’s said!
2. The occasion...
... after the loss!
3. The time...
...after it’s gone!

Be careful ALWAYS!

Mr Paul

hmmmm, unpalatable truth !
