Undisclosed Journeys #1

The feeling when you’re in between true joy and pain. That’s the moment just before your knee contacted the asphalt.

Yep. I was in such a trance that I did not even control my arms. Just one hand slipped off from the handlebar as I rolled downhill. How lucky was I to have not broken any bones? But my hands saved me. I don’t think I would have made it if my arms and hands weren’t that strong. I was only left with deep cuts on my hands, and knees along with splotches of blood.

You see, that was my first time I have ever fell off my bike. In the past 22 years of my life, I had not even felt this feeling before. I guess we are all at these times in our lives where everyone has got to experience something new, no matter how old they are.

I would say that I just felt a sharp sting at first, but then it subsided. I managed to walk home with blood dripping from my hands and fingers. I wanted to be strong. That day, I showed myself that I was strong enough to accomplish what I put my mind to.
