When I was a child I used to go to my grandparents house for every summer break. I have many friends there , children in the neighborhood. we used to play every day.
my grandparents house is in countryside. I used to go to fields with my friends to collect clay to make some shapeless toys which we think are the most crafted and elegant toys.
One fine day just like everytime I went to the field with my friends to collect clay. We filled our covers with clay .
We returned to our playground which is an abandoned house, on which we think we had our ownership.
Everyone has their clay filled cover and a cup of water. We took out clay from covers and made sure that there's no stones in the clay.
Everyone took some water in their hands pouring it in the clay to make it wet.
They started making their own toys.
I don't have any particular toy in my mind. So I am just watching them.
Suddenly I thought of making an unicorn. I rolled up my sleeves with my clay hands making sure that Iam dirty enough to get a scolding from my grandmother.
I took some clay pouring water in it and started making unicorn.
I was so determined to make a unicorn. While making it I was thinking like "after making this everyone will say "woah! it was soo nice. what a masterpiece."
I was extra determined with it's alicorn. I have already decided with what color I should paint it.
I am ready to ask my grandfather to buy a pink and white colour paints to paint my unicorn.
Thinking like that, feeling so proud of my skill, I finished making my unicorn.
"Guys look at my un......" I didn't even completed my words.
"Woah! what a nice Rhino " my friend said.
"No guys, slow down, just take your time." I gave them a hint that it was not a Rhino.
" what ? isn't it a Rhino" one friend said.
"Horn looks so perfect" another one said.
"Maybe Rhino is on diet, she looks a bit thin" another friend said.
"Woah you are very skilled." they all said simultaneously and clapped.
I forced a smile and thanked them.
I really don't know that it will hurt so much when someone praises and appreciates my skill.
So guys just take your time to complement someone or something.
Or just give them a chance to complete what they are saying.
sometimes don't be eager to say something.
Try to slow down a bit.
