Time is very important in our lives. It  16  our everybody moments. However, time never had any  17  in my life until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more  18 .
It’s round in the center with two silver bands that go around my wrist. And all of it is made of silver. This  19  tells me the importance of time in my life.
I received this  20  on a gray-sky day. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to  21  up my uncle Ali and take him to my father’s house  22  , I was late because I was  23  out with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00 am, I  24  my uncle, but I was very 25  for him. He had  26  the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house.
I got to my father’s house at 2:00 pm on the same day and looking at my angry father’s face I felt 27  of myself at that moment. After I said hi to my  28  father and tired uncle, my father asked me to sit next to him where he handed me this watch as a gift from him. Then he said, “Essa, did you have  29   with your friends today?” I answered, “Yes, father, and I’m sorry about not picking up my uncle Ali.” He said, “What you  30  was not very nice and you should be sorry for your  31  .” I was ashamed and said, “Father, I’ll never do it again, I promise.” He said, “I hope today you learned something important, and this watch will be a  32  for you.” He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my 33  .
I learned a very important lesson from my father: to  34  time and never be late to get someone. This watch is  35  to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.
