THE DAYS I COULDN’T COME

Ever been in that situation where you wish or want to be somewhere but due though one or two circumstances may be unforeseen you find yourself somewhere else.  Well I know some of us have been and it’s worse when remembering you promised to be there and finally you were not or you were late the bottom line remains that you weren’t there when you said you would be or you call it that you weren’t there when you where expected.

I was with a team back some time ago we were setting up water tanks we had no issue doing so till we had a break and at that point I needed to go get my sister from school so I passed out giving my word of just taking twenty minutes of which I didn’t need that much before I return but I took that much for the sake of unplanned events that may occur, I was given and I left for her school unfortunately I didn’t return as expected there was a slack in my timing due to some circumstances which I didn’t plan and the extra five(5) which I intentionally added wasn’t enough but still I retuned and behold they had already finished I felt bad I didn’t make it on time to join them but they were seeing it from a different angle from which I was; “at least you returned, it’s a good thing” was what they said but I saw it differently I had failed to keep a simple promise of returning at the said time I blamed myself for it all I was still living in that feel later that same day I don’t think I was dull or moody about it for I still went about my daily routine when a friend of mine kept pestering with questions about my moodiness reluctantly I told her and she also gave me a different point of view of that same event “it’s not your fault, you needed to bring her from school and it’s not like you knew that they would have the principals speech after school so it’s not your fault” I don’t know why but I wasn’t satisfied about the answers I got  may be its because I have learned to always take responsibilities of my actions; failures and success.

Forward to today it still happens sometimes and I really feel bad about it should I say I haven’t gotten over it or it’s just how it is with me; feeling bad about not keeping to it and this led to this post

THE DAYS I COULDN’T COME.
