Yesterday night after having my dinner at a canteen. I went with my friends for a stroll. When It was 9pm I decided to head back to the hostel.
Back in the hostel, in the passageway I meet a friend I knew since my first year of college, we became friends primarily because we were in the same faculty.
We greeted and I decided to follow him to know and see his room. On getting to his room I also met two people I knew. We were all kinda surprised that we knew each other.
"Did you know him"; we all asked ourselves simultaneously
We were all surprised we knew each other in a way. While we were chatting and chattering, a roommate of theirs who was busy with his laptop looked up and pointed to me suddenly and said to his roommates;
"This guy na crypto lord" a pidgin English version of saying "this guy is involved in crypto or he is good with crypto"
I was shocked and surprised, because firstly, the word "crypto lord" is a wrong description or name title for someone like me. Although I knew it might have been a caricature.
I can not refer to myself as a crypto lord because I know very little about crypto currencies, I even don't have in possess any other coin apart form Bitcoin cash.
But what got me scared was how my friend's roomie; a stranger, knew I had involvement with any cryptocurrency. When only very few of my friends knew.
So with immense curiosity I began asking him,
"How did you know".
"How did you know me"
Then the guy finally opened up to me after much urging and pressing for an answer by me, he told me that he was in a room when I was talking and teaching a former roommate of mine about Bitcoin cash and noise cash.
I now knew the reason why he decided to caricature me about being a crypto lord finally I was relieved.
This scenario made realize how our lives are interwoven with one and another. Just imagined if I had done something silly in the room where this guy got to know me.
I might have thought no one knew me but see how fate will have it. He is a roommate to three of my friends.
In life we have to be careful of what we do, what we say and the way we act because people are constantly watching us. You might think they are strangers or these people that do not matter. But that isn't true.
Have you heard of the saying that the first impression matters a lot. Well that isn't a lie. We mostly remember people by the first act we see them do or by the first words we hear from them especially if that act or word is spectacular, be it good or bad.
You'd be shocked that a lot of people know more about you than you can imagine.
I remember in high school I constantly meet people who know me by name and whereas I didn't even no their names. Bear in mind I wasn't so popular.
In conclusion
You should put on your best act wherever you go.
I am glad I was caught in the teaching and spreading the awareness of BCH.
It’s actually a nice name , and you have earned it
