Many people today are so stubborn and are not ready to listen to simple instructions. Following instructions can make you the best and will not remove anything from your body. Try as much as you can to remain yourself and do listen to simple instructions.
Being Adamant is not the best, but can make you the least. Adamant can be as a result of : pride. Pride can make you fall and can make people lose hope on you. You may have someone who has passion for you, but immediately pride comes in, you will be nobody before that fellow.
A woman told is story today about her son who lives in the State. He has been someone who is always faithful and ready to abide to instructions. He always obeys his mum and the dad. Likewise, he left when he was so small to the State for schooling. Not only that, but he went there to study, but after the completion of his university, he decided to proceed to have his master's done. It was so nice to been there according to him. He, after spending some time with his studies, went out to organize a place to celebrate his birthday.
Meanwhile, the lockdown is still so much fresh in the State. Everyone has been put on hold, including businesses. A time was fixed to go out and the time when to come back home. The time fixed was 9am. This means, by this time, nobody must be seen outside. He was so adamant that he decided to call his friends to come for the birthday celebration. The friends attended as he has prepared things awaiting them. The friends were feeling reluctant to attend, just because of the nature of things over there. Covid is still a big issue in that country.
So, the friends finally arrived, and immediately the party started and few minutes later, they were arrested for violating the rules. At the end of it all, the girls were released the following day, leaving the guys behind. They later released the others, leaving him behind. He stayed in the cell for five days. This is what adamant got him to.
He was told by his parents not to have the party just because of the situation of things, yet he adamantly carried out what was in his mind.
Thank God, he was freed after paying some huge amount of money as fine for violating rules.
Being adamant is not the best, and the best is for one to remain calm and cool-headed.
There is another one that also happened in a family. The girl was about to leave for a party, but her parents told him not to attend as they have a feeling about this party. She wept seriously and found a way to escape from the house, which she succeeded. She attended the party and at the end, the unexpected happened to her. On her way back from the party, She was attacked and raped to death by some unknown boys.
The parents had seen this coming and so, tried hard to deprive her of going but adamantly escaped without the parents knowing. Now, she has met her death.
Children of the nowadays are just too stubborn as they are not ready to listen to their parents words. Sometimes, what your parents are seeing why standing, you may not be able to see it. This is why we must respect our parent's words at all cost.
Similar thing of a case of a young boy in my village. The King has ordered everyone not to visit a particular stream not far from our house in the village. Though the mermaid already told the king to inform everyone of us in the village but this boy proved adamant and went to bathe. The following day, his body was found beside the stream.
The end of being adamant is regret and bad thing. We need to always follow advice and not proving stubborn to act according to our own mind.
