Many years back as a teenager, I transferred from a mixed secondary school to a boys only school. I found it rather difficult adjusting to boarding school, hostel life and being subservient to seniors. There was this particular senior who made my life a living hell. He always picked on me for no reason. He would beat me and take my lunch money. But as a new boarder, I had no choice but to live with it. Some years later, I attended a funeral with my friends, we got a table and ordered for drinks and food. Lo and behold, the server attending to my table was my secondary school bully. I was stunned and didn’t know what to say. After the event I walked up to him to say hi and he immediately remembered me. He tried to dredge up the past by asking for forgiveness but I told him I had already forgiven him. All I could think of at the time was that karma really is a bitch. We made peace that day and we went our separate ways. So basically, I’d like to implore people to always think about their actions and its repercussions. One can’t predict the future
