Well, I am a punctual person and always try to arrive on time. I'm going to share an instance when I was late due to unavoidable circumstances last month. My family and I were traveling to Chandigarh to attend my cousin's wedding. We were really excited to attend this wedding. We went there by car and started our journey early in the morning. When we reached Ludhiana, there was a heavy fog due to the winter season. Because of the bad weather, I couldn't drive the car properly because the roads were not visible. Besides this, there was also heavy traffic congestion. After traveling only about 10 kilometers, I had to stop the car because of the low visibility of the fog. My family and I were baffled, but we had no choice but to stop our travel and stay at a nearby restaurant. We had breakfast because we were hungry since morning. We waited for two or three hours for the fog to clear, and then we began our journey again. Unfortunately, after entering Chandigarh, we found a large queue in traffic. We finally reached my cousin's home in the evening. I missed the wedding ceremony, but I attended the reception party at night.
