The Three Falls of the Year... (and counting...)

Yup!!! I am back... and last night I fell walking on my high heels... and I needed to share with all of you guys the reflection behind my falls...

This year I have had the blessing of being traveling around US and the Caribbean... And in the whole year I have had three falls...

  1. The first one was at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, CO. I was hiking a mountain and my sport shoes were so old that I slipped and went down the hill and broke my $350.00 Canon Camera since I landed on top of it. YUP!!!! GREAT MEMORIES!
  2. The second one was in Vega Baja, PR (my home town) at my parents house... I was applying a roof treatment but there were a part of the avocado's tree that was falling on top of the roof... I wanted to cut it but my family didn't want me to.... soooooooooooo, I was holding a part of the tree and that part broke and I fell... YUP!!!!
  3. The last one was last night when I was walking with some friends from 6th street to Colorado St and 4th St. I was wearing high heels, a nice dress and my cute coat when my feet didn't go where I wanted him to go and it took my down on the floor against my will...
Probably, I can keep falling, but from all those experiences I just learned a big deal from my behavior..... In Colorado Springs, I fell, I stayed in the floor for a minute, and then I got up and I walked a couple of trails after that for about 4 hours and I am not kidding... In Puerto Rico at the roof, I fell, it hurts, I stayed at the floor for a minute, but my niece extended her arms to help me get up and I finished putting that roof treatment and today, the drop that was falling on my mother's head while she was sleeping is gone... :) And yesterday.... I still feel embarrass about it, but it was the same... I fell, my friends extended their hands to help me, I got up, walked until my destination, danced with my friends... and they just acted like nothing has happened to me....

Soooooo, now I think about it and in life we have a couple of trails we need to walk.... and probably, we are going to fall, but there will be always someone on your side to extend their hands and help you get up.... BUT it is your choice of staying down there crying or getting back on your feet and finish it all...

Sooooo, what are you waiting for??? GET UP!!!! :)
