Just When I Thought I'd Carry This To My Grave!

When i think of a time i got in trouble as a child a lot of stories jumps into my head therefore you can infer that i wasn't the best son that everyone wanted me to be, but i guess it's normal for a kid to be like this. However the story I'm about to tell takes place in my beloved house which is located in my home country Kuwait, and before i begin my story i'd like to clear up some stuff so you'll understand the situation perfectly, first my dad is a very religious man and so is my mom like the most of the adults in my family, which a good thing, but to a teenager obeying all of our religion rules is kinda impossible yet some people managed to do it but not me, i liked exploring new thing and didn't care about anyones opinion i was and i probably still stubborn, which means if i wanted  to do something there  is no one that could stand in my way, which is a bad thing i know but i keep doing it unintentionally.
so lets start with my story, as you may already know i like music a lot like a lot, but my parents don't they consider it a sin and so is my religion so to them every time i listen to a song it's a sin and when they catch me doing it i get a religious lecture from them, but after a while they got kinda used to me listing to music, but thats not what the whole story is about, after they got used to it. I for no specific reason decided to buy a guitar and i knew that my parents would never ever let me buy one no matter what i say, then i remembered that they also would let me do what ever i have to do in order to get the best grade possible in school. So i took advantage of that fact and told them that i needed  a guitar for school and that i will fail the subject if i didn't get one and that i won't use it it'll be just for show and that i told my friend to give me one, so after a long talk with them that lasted for days they finally agreed to let me do it, so i went with my friend to a guitar shop and from my saving money i bought a guitar (there was no friend to give me a guitar) and then got back home with my new guitar. Of course i couldn't use it at home so i took it to school and practiced it during breaks and unimportant periods. and on the weekends i took it and went around the block to the neighborhood's walk and played it each morning from 5 to 7 am and i continued on that routine for a whole year, and the next year i couldn't pull the same lie again because "music" was an elective subject that i can take just for one year so i had to put the guitar away in my closet and till this day it's in my closet waiting for someone to pick it up.
And the best thing is that my parents didn't suspect anything about me playing the guitar and never found out, guess i was very careful with my Schemes.

My Humble Comment On Some Sayings...

"Skillful sailors aren't made by smooth seas" 
     This is one of the Proverbs that i can not disagree with, when you see a very skillful person or athlete you might think that this guy is gifted and he didn't work and train hard to be this skillful, but you are wrong every champion had to train so hard beyond your imagination, and they had to sacrifice a lot of things to get to where they're now, for example the well known martial art icon Bruce Lee did not take pills to build up his muscles nor did he lift up heavy weights to be strong, in other words he didn't take the easy road to be strong, he toke the hard way, so he did a lot of push ups, sit ups and so to be this good, in addition he mastered two martial arts (kung-fu and karate), from that example we learned that taking the easy road won't take you no where, therefore if wan to do something we have to take the hard way because that's what is good for us.

"Never promise a fish until it's caught."
     This proverb is actually one of my favorite, because it help a lot and what it means is don't promos to give someone something you don't have, because you don't know if gull get it or not, for example you promised a friend to get him the concert tickets that he wants but when you went to buy then they sold out what do you tell your friend now? Didn't you promise him, your friend might forgive you but what will happen if it was a stranger or a girl you like, she will never believe you anymore.

"Rome wasn't built in a day."
     When i read this proverb i got inspired, and what it means is that in building something great needs a long time to be done, like when Rome was built all this amazing stuff wasn't built in one day it took years and years of hard work until it reached this amazing result that a lot of people go to rome to see, and that implies on everything if you want something as great as the structure of Rome you'll have to work harder that ever and put in your mind this famous saying "the only easy day was yesterday."
