Listen to your body

Our body and mind are just amazing !

A near fatal injury has just made me think as how much of stress I had put on my body and understand its response or probably its retaliation.

The fall
It was a paradoxical event. I'm not sure whether my unbearable zeal towards sports had increased the elasticity of my muscles or whether it was the same zeal, which pushed me this level, that my body just gave up.

Nevertheless, the initial and inexplicable fear, walking around with support, recollecting those sequence of events( down, up again, down and up again ) has been quiet a thrill.

The rise
Now that I know the mechanics behind my body's reaction, from the doctors, muscles just fascinates me. Bottom line was a simple but strong message from the body " listen to me you idiot ".
