The rise after a fall

I started writing about making more money and spending it well and then I was called out for a walk by the better half. Stepped out and as I walked out of the building, I sensed my feet slipping off the floor and before i knew it, I was on my knees and twisted my feet. At that moment, I feared being too injured to be unable to walk. Worse the replapse of my dislocated knee. My head felt heavy and I had to sit for a bit to calm down. It has been 30 minutes since the fall as I type now. Right knee and foot - All Okay. Left knee - slight discomfort. Left foot, iced on the sprained part, but I can walk okay. Phew. That's a relief. It is funny that one always fears being spotted while falling or post a fall. Thankfully the one who gave the idea of going for a walk was around, so he literally helped me get back to my feet. Every time I hurt myself or i accidentally cut my hand, I end up realizing how important each part is so important to us. My friend dislocated her ankle and has not been able to walk around at all and that's when the whole ability to move around feels like a very important ability to have. If I cut my thumb, I feel how important the thumb is for most of the actions. Even just washing your face or hair feels like a chore. Sigh. Why does it take a fall or a cut to realize that. Every day life is a chase and we hardly stay thankful for what we have and what we can do. So taking this as a reminder to be thankful on other days, well, even today. I am thankful that I am safe and it was not such a big deal after all. Until next time, stay safe and Happy Reading.
