3 days ago i along with my other 2 fren was heading our home which would take about 2 hrs from the picnic spot. We took bus and headed toward home but on the way all of us wanted to hike so we ride off the bus and started walking. After walking for about half an hour weather started changing vigorously. Suddenly wind started blowing, lightning occured and the atmosphere was soon filled with dust. All the people were running, even the vehicles stopped where they were. atmosphere was so dusty that we could hardly see beyond 5 meters. We were running blindly but this was not the worst part. We all were so tired of running so we stopped. I was holding my stomach because it was paining real bad cause i was not the athlete kind of person. i was looking at the near by trees how the wind was bending it with force. I was looking and looking and i soon realize that a tree was falling on my spot . i knew it was going to fall my way but i stand as a statue, i dont know what happened to me . i was like a helpless rat infront of a cat. i wonder where my reflex action went. It was my friend who savedmy life. He grabed my hand and pulled me saying "run", then i started running. the tree missed us with just a feet or two . Man! i can still feel the powerof the wind that passed through my body when the tree hit the ground.
