A Memorable Childhood Experience

A Memorable Childhood Experience
It was a normal Saturday morning everything was going swell until, I awoke up from my slumber only to be left alone at home with my brother. In that short moment where my brother and I were left alone at home to survive I started to panic and overthink the worst-case scenario might happen. That our parents left us to fend for ourselves and we had to endure the up-coming obstacles that would soon arrive. In this experience, I learned not to overthink but to also be patient in and not make hasty decisions.
It was a regular Saturday morning I was asleep in my bed and I remember what the dream I was having. I was dreaming that I was falling off a fifty-story building and when I immediately fell in my dream my body

My brother was in a severe state of shock, all he could do was just follow through with what I said. Even though I had nothing to back up my word. So, my brother and I started to find small luggage and started overfilling them with clothes. After that we started to collect some food from the pantry and the refrigerator.

Slowly we approached the door until we reached the door knob we both looked back at each other and we knew that there was no going back after this. So, I grabbed the door knob slowly, turned it around and yanked it back with full force. As my younger brother and I were about to strike the unknown intruder we had stopped mid-way and recognized who the intruders were.
Little did we know that it was our parents at the doorstep looking at us very strangely and we dropped the pots in relief. We had asked why the door was left open and my parents said they were in a hurry for an appointment and forgot to close the door on their way. The first thing my parents noticed was that the entire house was a mess and they looked back at us for an explanation. I explained that when they were gone I had panicked and thought you left us to go live another life. So, I decided that we should gather all the food and start rationing our food supply. My parents were not in a good mode and they started yelling at me for making very poor decision in this situation. Not only did I learn not to overthink everything the hard way, but I also gained some valuable insight to be patient in any
