Can my story be complete without mentioning how I skipped church one day and ended up watching a movie at a neighbor's house, only to sleep off until evening while my mother and grandmother searched everywhere for me? I made my way to my neighbor's house, fully intending to spend the day lounging and watching movies. As the hours ticked by, my absence from church had become increasingly concerning for my mother and grandmother. They had scoured the neighborhood, asking friends and neighbors if anyone had seen me. But each lead turned up empty, and their panic grew with each passing moment. Little did I know that this decision would have profound consequences.

As the hours passed, I fell into a deep sleep, completely oblivious to the frantic search party that was combing the neighbourhood for me. My mother and grandmother, who had no doubt assumed the worst, were beside themselves with worry.

It wasn't until evening that I finally stirred from my slumber, groggy and disoriented. As I made my way back home, I was met with a torrent of anger and relief from my family, who had been anxiously awaiting my return.

Looking back on that day, I can't help but wonder what might have happened if I had made a different choice. Would I have avoided the heartache and turmoil that followed? Or was this simply a necessary step in my journey, a cautionary tale to remind me of the importance of responsibility and duty?

As with all things in life, the answers remain elusive. But one thing is certain - that seemingly insignificant decision to skip church will stay with me for years to come, a reminder of the fragility and unpredictability of the human experience.

Perhaps it was fate that led me to skip church that day, or perhaps it was simply the mischievous whims of a bored teenager. But as I lay there, surrounded by the flickering glow of the television screen, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

It was as though the universe was trying to tell me something, a message hidden amidst the mundane details of my everyday life. And as the events of that day began to sink in, I realized that I had been given a gift - a chance to see the world in a new light, to understand the interconnectedness of all things.

Your experience left me with a taste of a psychedelic trip and that persistent desire of every human being to have that doubt when not knowing if the decision I made was the best or not.
