The most memorable thing about this load-shedding scenario would be the late night load-shedding play sessions when I was a kid. Sometimes we'd even have the mood shining bright from up above, providing an adequate amount of light, just enough to spot someone's movement. The prefect setup for a bit of hide and seek. Whether it be the city streets or our village yard; the combination of load-shedding, a bright and beautiful moon and a bit of hide and seek was absolutely priceless back then.

Yes, these days we are annoyed when there's even a 5 minute delay in any form, whether it be the electricity or our internet connection. We've become so "busy" and impatient, so used to this "tech dependent" lifestyle, that even a bit of change or the slightest inconvenience brings out the worst from inside of us.
