The time is 11:05pm and am here to tell a funny story about myself

Before yesterday I always thought I had enough energy to do some things as I always do.

In my early 20,s or Late 20,s I challenge anyone that comes around me because I had the needed strength to fight them and I will always win, till date people are scared of me where I grew up, I was always winning medals for coming first in running while in secondary school.

I never knew that I have lost lots of strength especially after childbirth and am in my early 40's so I was thinking am still that same person, but yesterday it became obvious.

Monday got me laughing at myself.

Yesterday afternoon I went to get something for the house, on my way coming back it started drizzling looking like it was going to rain, so everyone were running to get a shield from the rain because it was getting a bit heavy, so deep inside me I thought I can run very fast, I took off and started running, the next thing that happened surprised me, I saw myself on the floor, I literally fell flat on the floor and people came around to help me stand up, everyone was saying sorry sorry, I couldn't figure out what actually happened

I looked around I didn't see any wood or stumbling blocks that caused me to fall, I just started laughing, I managed to get home, I had some brushes on my leg and elbow just because I wanted to run fast and escape the rain.

When I got home I called my mom and related to her what happened, the first thing she said was do you think your still young, very soon you will become a grandmother and you want to run like your still in your 20's I couldn't stop laughing at myself.

Just on my own I recalled some simple things I find so hard to do this days, so I started asking myself so really am getting older and that means I will have some limitations in things I have always been doing in life, I couldn't get sad because many of my age are dead so instead of being sad I just kept laughing and in my head I thought about how to do somethings in a new way to avoid falling down or hurting myself.

Even as am putting down this content am seriously laughing at myself, remembering the way I fail like a bag of garri on the street that day.

But is this really funny 🤣?
