Walk this way.

This pair of original red Indian moccasins (nvr used!) bought  some 35 yrs ago at Disneyland, and hidden 'neath stacks of 'goods' (*collected over the years) , came into mind other day when I was researching the health benefits of 'grounding'  via a leather shoe. It has resurfaced into my life (thks Bryan). I'm gonna try hike w them see if I get an electron therapy upload (if u see my hair going frizzy you'll know what happened..)
So upwards/onwards... 'CHARGE'

Head over heels?

How not to fall 360° ( head over heels in/or out of love!! ). So what was meant to be a birthday hike today wit my good friend and bday boy Martin koay  , turn my world 360° albeit for a few secs.. As we approached the steepest part of trail B, I ventured slightly off the regular terrain to overtake the couple in front when I suddenly lost my balance.. instinctively I stabbed my hiking pole on the right to counter and same time reached out to grab the branch in front of me, only to hear the sickening crack of the branch as it broke off ; it was dried out on the inside.. I tried to squat but it was too late, I felt my body free-falling backwards on a 45° incline slope behind ..  (heard martin calling out my name twice). As the world rotated 360  I caught sight of Martin sliding ahead of me. He tried to prevent me rolling further, but he too lost his footing ended up sliding down the slope (God bless his heart! ). So we were both hurtling down. Thankfully I stopped rolling but he continued to slide further down ; I don't know what I looked like to him, but it was pretty intense to see him  slide down towards the edge. So after a few moments, we recovered ourselves, checked some bruises but nothing broken nothing severely sprained etc. And we continue on to the peak. Now we have a story to tell, an incident to rmbr and the opportunity to thank God for his protection over the two of us. PRAISE JESUS!
Ps. Now I've developed a 'well rounded' view of things, you shd try it. :)
