RE: 20th Daily Steemit Upvote Lottery

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

Hi, I'm praizychris. I write about life, health and fiction.
I have already abided by the rules of the game.
The weirdest scar i have is on my left cheek, two dark parallel lines that invites questions from most people. I got it when my teacher flogged me with a cane for spilling my notebook with palm oil. I was actually eating and trying to read. Now, I'm angry at him for spoiling my fine face.

Sort:  

I can imagine you're upset! Where are you from?

I'm a Nigerian. I've learnt to live with it as it can not be avoided and must be endured. I've also forgiven my teacher.

That is very kind of you :)

Sorry to hear about your face. I've been a teacher for over 40 years, but I never hurt any of my students (one father explicitly told me to do so if his son misbehaved, but I said "That's not my style. There are better ways").

Health? My wife was a professional nurse for 30 years, so we share a lot of ideas. I'll have to check you out.

Anger caused not necessarily by the oil spill but due to other factors might have influenced that course of action.
