The Shame Of Abusing The Relationship. #memoirmonday week 8

Foolishness is naughty. It is a silly disposition. It is a stupid. Foolishness defames our character. It can make us lose what we have been pursuing all along. It is a retrograting trait. It is the stain on our garment of dignity. It is shameful to be foolish. Foolishness is just foolishness.

Our actions in words and thoughts are the parameters that define our lives. We are termed wise if we talk and act wisely. We will be termed foolish if we talk and acts foolishly. I have had my our share of acting foolishly.

When I saw the prompt from @ericvancewalton on the week 8 of #memoirmonday initiative, I think it's a good opportunity to correct the foolishness I had displayed years ago. The prompt says:
If you had the chance to do it all over, what would you do differently?

The #memoirmonday challenge is a good one to engage on. It offers us the opportunity of reflecting critically on our lives and judging certain actions and initiatives of our past lives under the light of our present understanding. The link to the current week is here

In my youthful days, I had some virtues and creative abilities that endeared me to elderly people and people of more dignifying status than I was. The intelligence God gave me with many creative talents made me a favorite among many. So, I had the opportunity of working with those who were senior to me (which I should literally respect.) These Interactions were very helpful in my life and helped me in building myself up. Honestly, there are several lessons I have learnt from the elderly that are helping me now in managing people (specially as a pastor.)

Something happened one time that has refused to leave my conscience all these years. This action is more than 15 years now but I still feel guilty every time I remember them.

I had an opportunity to work with some senior people from my community on a community development project. One that fateful day, we were just playing and chatting together at the site when suddenly, I lost control and fart. Everywhere became quiet as if a bomb had dropped. I acted foolishly and stupid not because I had passed out the unwanted gas, but because I felt too familiar not to apologize.
If I could get the opportunity, I wish I could correct that miss deed.
I wouldn't want to explain more on this. But I do hope that this opportunity by @ericvancewalton will erase the guilt from my mind permanently.
Thank you for your time.
