Once, quite a long time ago, long before I started this blog, I was heavily clouded with anger over an issue. I had never felt such fury towards anyone before, that was the first.
The cause of the unfortunate condition was my uncles had spoken cruelly of my mother to me. They didn't do it person, but instead they sent text messages to complaint of their resentment and dissatisfaction to her through my mobile. At that time, my parents had yet to own their mobiles.
Until today, when I think back about that incident, I really cannot fathom how could it even crossed their minds that I would be able to just be a postman and relayed the messages unaffected. The messages were strongly worded and uncensored. It was a situation that I believe, they as siblings should deal with face to face and not dragged any unnecessary person into. Would they have quietly become messengers of bearing harsh words of their mother, my grandmother, to her, from her brothers? I would think not.
I remembered that I got so mad, I replied another strongly worded text messages to them, to condemn them of their very childish, utterly selfish and impossibly unreasonable behaviours. I didn't get any reply or any more messages from them after that. And I felt good to had been able to give them a piece of my mind.
The three of them had had made their peace, soon after. I am glad. That incident made me realized that, if the situation arose, I would be there for my family, safe guard them no matter what. I really hope I don't have to be put in a similar situation once again.
