Greetings!
Whenever I looked back at some of my recent acts and behavior, I used to feel ashamed of myself. Being ashamed in this context is not about a bad behavior, but of my childish acts and deeds. This my childish behavior atimes shows some of my actions and attitudes that are immatured and unprofessional.
Like I said earlier, looking back at my recent behavior, there's behaviours that make me feel like a child. Most especially at home with my darling wife. The way I used to react whenever issues arises at home and somewhere else's always show my childish act.
Atimes when I acted in such an immature way, I used have this nostalgic feelings of when I was growing up with my mum as a child. In those days, I used to feel like, I will not eat and even refused to talk to my mum when offended. These acts of mine were what I used to do to tell my mum that I didn't like what she's doing to me, not knowing I was only affecting myself with hunger as a child.
So, just as it used to happened in those days, then it's also been till now. When I and my wife have little misunderstanding.
There's this recent happening between I and my wife. It all started with a little misunderstanding and I was like, to make her apologize for what she's done, I would not eat.
So, for this reason, i decided not to eat out of her prepared food. And for someone like me that would not even joke with food, I found it difficult to bear the heat of the hunger, but at the same time, my ego would not allow me to handle the situation with a mature mind.
So, I kept on with my decision not to eat out of her prepared food. But when I could not take the heat of the hunger any longer, I went to the kitchen to take out of the food she's prepared when I realized she's fast asleep in the night.
So, it's in the course of taking out of the food that, she woke up.and came to where I was taking out of the food, immediately, saw her comin, I was shocked not because of what she would do, but because of my ego that I wouldn't want to trampled upon which in one way or the other has been making to act immature.

Immediately i noticed this, i was shocked and the plates dropped from my hand and broke. It's then I turned the whole thing to joke and that's where the whole rancor and misunderstanding stopped.
So, this is the highlight of my recent childish behaviour, and this particular incident really made me remembered my childish behavior while growing up with my parents and now it's also happened and repeated itself with my wife. Though, different time and feelings, but the same way of childish behavior.
This is my entry to the hivereachout weekly prompt.
