ORIENTATION last tuesday was the bad day I ever had. In the morning my mother told me to clean
the house because she was going out for a while, but I forgot because I was
studying to prepare my presentation from the "speaking" class. During our
speaking class we used zoom app and when the class was started I had a good
connection.
COMPLICATION After ten minutes had passed and the class was still going on suddenly I had a very
bad network connection, even though I had a presentation in a few minutes. I
began to worry and pray for help, because I was afraid that I would not have good
grades. I also wanted to buy a smooth network connecton package, So I could
present, however, at that time my parents were not at home. I ran to ask my
brother for help and gave me “hotspot”, then my brother gave it. And after that, I
went back to join the “speaking” class. After five passed and my group was called
for a presentation, but suddenly my brother’s internet package ran out, and I
couldn't join anymore, I was crying and disappointed with God. After that my
mother went home angry with me because my house was still dirty. I also fought
against my mother, I accidentally snapped at her. My mother immediately hit me
with a cloth, I was getting worse with my sadness and I was very sorry for hurting
her heart.
RESOLUTION At night, I was still sad thinking about that morning, because my speaking score
was empty and I was against my own mother, even my mother was still angry with
me. She didn't talk to me and I didn't talk to her either. Because I can't stand what
happened, I decided to fix it. I immediately chatted with my lecturer, to apologize
and ask for the opportunity to be given the opportunity to present in next tuesday,
my lecturer agreed. After that I came to my mother and apologized. While
massaging her shoulders. My mother also forgave me and we talked happily. And
finally all the problems that I experienced and the sadness that I felt was over. I
also decided for the future, if I had to be more calm and patient to experience a
problem in the future.
CODA (optional) The lesson I got from my problem is, I have to be more calm and patient to pass a
problem that I am experiencing. No matter how big the problem, I must still be
able to believe in God and don't hurt MY parents just because I have a problem.
And than, never run from problems, but look for the best way to fix my problems.
