It was a great morning today, even though the weather is a bit cloudy. I was having a great time checking discussions here in MyLot and Platinum Lounge and some of my PTC's. I wasn't get able to work my task because I feel like to relax and visit first many "money making websites", and other stuff. Suddenly I look at the time, it was around 11 o'clock something. So I jump off my seat and go to the kitchen and prepare for lunch. While preparing, I noticed there is no more vegetables at the refrigerator to I have to buy it in the store. I took the mountain bike with me and head to the nearest store. When I get back, I was holding the goods at my right arm, and my left arm was holding the steer of the bike. It was raining so I drive faster, and as I was turning to the office, I suddenly grip my left arm to brake but I was too late for me to realize it was the front brake. So I fell off the bike, its like a front flip throwing me to the front of the bike and my chin hits the handle bar of the bike. When I stood up I can feel the blood from my chin pouring over the road and my jaw bone is like dislocated. I hurriedly go back to the office and tell my buddies about what had happened to me.It was really frustrating that this had happened to me. I never expect this. The accident happens all of a sudden. Accidents happen unexpectedly. I wish I could turn back the time.

Everything happens for a reason, just look on the bright side bro. Accidents do happen to a lot of people and you're lucky it wasn't a major accident like most unfortunate people experienced, and regretted it for the rest of their life. It's a blessing in disguise, this happened so you would be more careful next time and avoid bigger accidents that will probably come in the future. God Bless and may you get well at the soonest time.

Sorry to hear about your accident. I hope you get better soon. And yes accidents always happened unexpectedly and when it happened we are always flashing back saying 'i should have done that or i should not have done that...'. But it has happened try not to be to hard upon yourself about it, it was an accident. Focus your thoughts on getting better real fast. Take care.

Ouch that's gotta hurt! I'm glad you're ok though. Doesn't look like anything will be permanent except maybe a scar on your chin. I would be nice if we could turn back time so that accidents don't happen. Either that or speed it up so we can see what's coming so we can avoid it before it happens! Hope you feel better soon simpaulguy!

dont be too hard on yourself simpaulguy. accidents really happen unexpectedly and it it is always constantly surprising us, since it is always happening in times that we least expected it to happen. just consider a lesson worth remembering, and learned. go on with your life but make sure it won't happen again. for now, smile whenever everything concerning it flashes back to your memory. lol!!!
