 Authors note: 

This piece discusses the actions that backfire on the main character

  What would you think if somebody closed down a path that the whole life of your village depended on?  Your  dead relatives depart by it and your ancestors visited you by it. But most important, it is the path of children coming in to be born…? Well this young ambitious man did just that and didn’t open his mind to see the villagers point of view.

 sees a woman walk on the flower bed and notices a path that leads to the village. Since Obi’s concern is the beauty of the path,  obi decides to close it. When the villages old priest comes to compromise with Michael obi, Michael obi shows his narrow-mindedness and shows his  concern for the  beauty of the path instead of the traditions of the villagers.
