Every morning when I get to the office I ensure I boil water and put in a flask to drink as I work. Its a habit I have been doing for a lond period now. Today morning was no different, except for the fact that sink had visitors(roaches) and not the small kind. There were huge cockroaches in my cup. I almost puked and threw away the cup. Actually they were in my favorite cup. It was disgusting to think i would use the cup again. I remembered my boss once saying though the cups are washed he had to rinse with hot water before using them. Something I thought was extreme till I saw the visitors in my cup today.
Perhaps they have been walking inside the cup and I use the cup soon after. Eiuu!! So I made a decision to pour out the roaches wash the cup with soapy hot water and rinse it with hot water. Actually I will from now hence forth do that. I blame the fumugation that happened in the adjacent office that didn't happen in ours. So the roaches moved to a home that isn't a death bed. Next fumugation our office isn't missing out . Throwing the cup was the easy thing to do but how would that solve the issue at hand. And that brought the lesson for today.
See there will be times when unwanted visitors and uncomfortable situations will invade our territory. Misunderstandings will arise in our relationships. We have a choice to abardon the projects we are undertaking or work through the misunderstanding or remove the unwanted visitors and proceed to enjoy the fruits of our relationships or projects. Yes some things are disgusting to pour out and continue as if nothing happened but how does throwing it all away help? How many things will we throw in our life just because unwanted visitors invaded our territory?
Lets make an informed decision before we chose to take the easy way out or abandon a project we set ourselves to take.
