Saturday, June 10, 2006 > The Fall

One moment, I was walking..

Next, I was on the ground on all fours..

Finally, My face was 2 inches from the ground..

I did a Sheena today.. As a result, I have plasters all over my hands, my knees are twice its usual size, my arms are full of scratches and cuts, my hips are sore and it pains me (literally!) to dress and walk. Doesn't help that I have a low-tolerance of pain..

You know how people say that it all happens in slow motion during an accident (or a fall in this case)? I now believe that. If I didn't know any better, I would have thought it took me 10 minutes to finally make contact with that gravel road.

After 3 minutes of agony in trying to feel my legs again, the embarassment of falling flat on my face in front of all my Lifegroup members started to creep in. Doesn't help that friends, after they heard about my fall said this to me:

Kelsey: Your knees are twice their size? Whoa.. They must be huge now!

Cheryl: I thought I felt some tremors

Sheesh.. All this pain just because I missed ONE step...
