I fell down today at the ice skating rink.
It was mildly embarrassing (6 year olds zoom past me when I was on the ground) initially, then the pain sets in (and one feels wtfwtfwtfffff) and it ends off being quite a good feeling.
It has been quite some time since I last fell. Which means it has been quite some time since I challenged myself to something out of my comfort zone. When we were young we fall a lot more. We take risks, we dive in without being bothered about what others think, we learn from experiencing the consequences. But as we learn, we take less risks, we become more bothered, we want to protect ourselves.
No pain no gain I guess. In the meantime, my butt continues to hurt (seriously, big butts don't cushion falls).
