365 Writing Prompts: Non sequitur

Write a post about anything you’d like , but be sure to include this sentence somewhere in the final paragraph.”He tried to hit me with a forklift.”

My grandparents had a beautiful house in the village, my grandpa  loved gardening,  we visited the village to see the house, grandpa and grandma had passed away before we went there, but our uncle and aunt lived there.

I and my siblings decided we’d explore the part where my grandparents lived, we noticed a garden, we went in and were amazed to find so many different fruit trees we’d never seen, we tasted them and loved the taste.

In the evening we went inside I asked mom to tell us the names of the fruits, As she was telling the names I wrote them on a piece of paper. I wanted to show my friends how many different fruits we ate when we were visiting our grandpa’s village.

Next morning we went on the dirt road to see what else was there for us to explore, on our way we met a crusty old man on a forklift truck, he yelled at us and told us to move away from his path, we were having fun we made all kinds of faces at him,  he got off his truck , said something loud which I did not understand  we still  refused to get out of his way, he was furious and  “he tried to hit me with a forklift.”

DP Daily Prompt: Litmus,Litmus on the Wall

If you had to come up with one question the answer to which would determine whether or not you could be friends with a person you’ve just met, what would it be? What would the right answer be?

My question is: Is it safe to make friends with someone I’ve just Met?

In my mind the right answer to my question is: In this world of ours there are a variety of personalities,  there is no doubt, ” human being is essentially good and peaceful.”, it’s a quote by a famous philosopher. In my mind I know at birth a child is an innocent soul, he is as fresh and pure as a daisy.

When this same human grows up he comes into contact with a variety of people, some are good some are evil, sometimes this little soul can be tempted to do things that are evil, this is one side he hasn’t learned,his parents has taught him what is good and he should always be truthful, honest and trustworthy.

When he meets someone who teaches him the exact opposite, he will be tempted to try. If he’s lucky he’d decide on his own this is not the right path, but if his curiosity gets the better of him, he’d continue to do illegal things secretly, after a while it’ll be a habit and he won’t be able to turn it around.

Good and evil seems to go side by side, this feeling will make me want to know the person first, before I  try to be friendly.
