No one stopped me.

Happy New Month, Everyone 🥳🥰💕

A child who started with little stealing, when he or she isn't stopped by the parent will grow up becoming addicted to stealing until he or she can't change and that will destroy such an individual if he or she is caught in the act, it will be too late then. A child who has started engaging in a wrong act will continue because he or she wasn't stopped and that could make such a person spoils the family name.

Whatever you noticed wrongly in an individual, you have to stop them on time so they won't be addicted to it when they grow up.

The movie I watched some days ago taught me a lesson that if someone isn't stopped from a bad act, he will continue doing it. For him to change would be difficult and by then, it will be too late. The guy had been in nine hospitals and he would inject patients with insulin and digoxin and they die in the end.

The hospital management noticed the sudden death of patients and knew the guy was behind it, instead of arresting or stopping him, he was sacked. Will that put a stop to it? The guy will always find another Job and that was what happened when he got to the tenth hospital until he met a good nurse and they became partners and worked together.

This good nurse didn't know until three deaths were recorded and they started suspecting this guy. The good nurse knew and got him arrested. She asked why he was doing those things. He said he had no reason and no one stopped him.

The management suspected this guy and instead of arresting him, they chose to protect the hospital's reputation and sacked him using another reason for such a decision because they didn't want him to know why he was sacked. That same week, he got another Job and was to resume that night he was arrested.

It was mentioned that he had killed 29 patients even though the original count was 400 which they didn't add to the numbers. Thank God for the good nurse, he would have to continue such an act in his next workplace and the cycle keeps going.

Something happened to me yesterday also. I have not been saying anything which made the thing keeps happening until I voiced out in the evening. I love to handle my things with care, same with other people's things and I want them to do for mine too but some people aren't thinking in that way and I feel bad about it. The truth is, I understand people and will do for them what I expect for mine too.

I went out to draw some water from the well using my fetcher. I don't like borrowing things and this is why I owned stuff personally. I noticed the rope was tied around each other and this has always been happening before yesterday and I would be the one to untie it because I don't like it. It makes the rope weak and not good to use.

Ever since I bought the fetcher some months back, I have always been handling it with care. Once I see the rope had been tied together, I untie it and will not talk which makes it keep happening. It is sad when people can't help you to handle stuff but you are always putting them into consideration.

It got me upset that after fetching the water, I raised my voice so they could hear me. I made them understand that I handle my things with care and if no one is ready to do that for me, they should stop using my things. I kept the fetcher outside for everyone to use and it's something I might decide not to do but since I don't want to act selfish, I kept it outside but the way they use it is something I don't enjoy or like.

At least I got to put a stop to such an act and if I see it happening again, then I might decide to keep my fetcher inside with me using my stuff alone. If you don't stop people, they will continue doing it until they can't be stopped again and by then, you will be affected in a way but it would be too late then.

I hope you get my point in this article. Some people want to change but seeing that no one comes to their rescue or changes them, they go deep into it to the extent that it becomes something serious and could ruin their lives. Let's try to stop something we observed which isn't good for a person before it gets to the point of no remedy.

Thanks for your time.
