There are many incidents in our live,
which make us happy or sad. I was recently the victim of a snatch thief. This
is one incident that I cannot forget. It was an incident that changes my life
forever.
It was Saturday morning, like any other
weekend and I was on the way to school for extra classes. Since my school bus
could not fetch me, I had to take the city bus to school. As I walked down the
street from my house, I notice that the road is very crowded. Buses, cars,
taxis motorcyclists and pedestrian created a hustle that would easily unnerve
anyone. I keep my cool to walked down the pedestrian path towards the bus stop.
My thought we however for away, as preoccupied with the mid-term exam that was
jus around the corner. Suddenly, like a bolt from the blue, a motorcyclist who
just passing beside me, tagged at my bag, which dangling from my shoulder.
I spun around and reeled from the force
of the moving vehicle. I felt a harsh pull. Within a split second sprawled on
the pavement. I felt numb and everything around became blur. I heard people
shooting, but I was too dazed to talk and and too shocked to taken get up. I
did not remember anything after that when I regained consciousness, I was in
hospital and my legs and my arms were barldaged. Yet I left no sensation or
pain. I was just to week event move.
‘What happened’ ?, I kept asking my
myself. How could this happened to me, I thought? My parents, my siblings were
there and their grim faces told me that things were not right. The doctor
finally broke the sad news to me. I was new paralyzed and would not be able to
walk again. I was shocked and did not know what to say. They was a lamp in my
throat. The tears that rolled down from my eyes slowly wet my pillow.
I am now stranger but must tern to be
more confident of my self. I have learnt to pray and hope that I will be to
move around in my wheel chair. It is one incident has changed my life forever.
It is one incident I will never be able to forget.
