Personal Narrative Essay: The Night Of Man In The Bar

305 Words2 Pages

There's a lot of things I regret about the night I assaulted that man in the bar. I keep wishing I could go back and do things different. As much as I wish I could turn back time, I think I learned a lot that night. I learned how fast your life can be completely turned upside down. I learned that even though the man was in the wrong, that violence is never the answer. It really opened my eyes. The night of the incident I was under the influence of alcohol, which I'd have to admit, I think it contributed to the escalation of the altercation. My mind wasn't in the right place. After realizing what I had done, I was ashamed of myself. I'm not a violent person. I'm happy to say since the incident and being sentenced, I haven't touched alcohol.
