Wednesday of last week, I met an accident here in the house. I accidentally stepped on the cat's tail, it bit me on the ankle, and in my efforts to break free and not completely stepping on the cat, I fell hard on my bum because the cat got in the way where I was supposed to take my step. It was a very hard fall, and in fears that I could hit my head in the floor, I instinctly protected myself using my right hand. Unfortunately, I am a very heavy person, and the hand / arm just can't take all the weight. I ended up having a dislocated elbow.

My siblings were surprised with the impact, but they let me just be by myself. It was a painful injury, and I can't straighten my right arm. Still, I am able to get online because the computer table can let me rest my arm.

Because of the injury, I had to cancel some scheduled events I had to attend = watching the live show of Survivor Philippines - Palau, and the Dress to Kill fashion event in SM Megamall. It was a bit painful for me not being to attend, but of course I got to nurse my elbow.

I learned a few things about this injury... I can whine and cry and hurt over getting hurt, but the world wouldn't stop for my misery. Somehow, I got to get my act on and move forward. Having an injured elbow sure hurts a lot, but I have to cope up and move on. Same goes with the events... I know there will be more events to follow after these.

I am still hurting - I still can't get my arms straight, but I am not broken. I still have my spirits soaring high. I will be healed in due time. I am still lucky I didn't crack any bones. Life is still good.
