OBEDIENCE

‘i used to obey when others told me to do something. my parents were strict and my brother and i used to stand to attention like ramrods. i had to be obedient in school. in the children’s home too. i submitted to the discipline there. if you don’t obey you’re punished. that’s the way it is. no, we obeyed alright, but there came a point when that was no longer the case.’
