The light went off one fateful morning and I had already run out of gas. So by the time I woke up, it was around 6 a.m.
I decided to use a coal pot to make my breakfast.
I knew I would be very late to work that morning. I spent a few minutes preparing and started the fire to cook. After about 45 minutes, my white rice was ready, so I warmed my stew.
I poured away the charcoal, and on my way to get water, I mistakenly stepped on a hot coal. I couldn't help but cry; it was very hot. I quickly poured water on my legs to reduce the heat, but it only worsened.
I wondered how I was going to get to work with my shoes.
However, I was able to manage walking with a limp to work that day. I only applied some ointment, and on my way back, I visited the pharmacy because my leg was still burning from the coals. It was so painful.
Such accidents happen if we are in a hurry and are not careful. But in this confusion, an important life lesson is learned. And when we are in a hurry, we should be calm and careful to avoid accidents.
