19.Time never had any importance to me until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
I received this gift on a gray-sky day.I had to go to the airport at 9:00a.m.to pick up my uncle Ali and take him to my father's house.However,I was late because I was hanging out with my friends.Later that day,around 11:00a.m.,I remembered my uncle,but I was very late.He had already left the airport and taken a taxi to my father's house.
I got to my father's house at 2:00p.m.on the same day and looked at my angry father's face.I felt ashamed.After I said hi to my angry father and tired uncle,my father asked me to sit next to him and handed me this watch as a gift.Then he asked,"Eric,did you have fun with your friends today?"I answered,"Yes,father,and I am sorry about not picking up my uncle."He said,"What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry for your actions."I was ashamed."Father,I'll never do it again.I promise."Then he replied,"I hope today you learned something important,and this watch will be a reminder for you."He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.
I learned a very important lesson from my father that day:to respect time and never be late to meet someone.This watch is important to me,not because of its price,but because of the lesson that I learned from it.
