I really hope I will never experience a week like this ever again. Whenever I felt rather extreme emotions, I will experience the numb feeling (as if no blood is being pumped to) in my hands, feet and head. In the short span of 3/4 days this week, I experienced it twice!
Today, when I was waiting for the traffic light to change colour, I saw a car and a fallen motorbike on the road. There was a person in the car and a guy holding onto the helmet, so I thought that the accident did not injure anybody. Then when I was crossing the road, I realised that the pillar for the LRT was blocking me... There was a group of people crowding round the kerb... When I reached there, I turned my head to look. OMG! I saw an old man with blood by the corner on his mouth heaving and I think he was groaning. He looked as if he was not going to make it... I immedately turned and walked away. I started feeling very disoriented, heart beating like mad, then I went numb... I walked towards home not knowing what to do or to think. Lucky my brain was still good enough to let me call someone who tried the best to calm me, instructing me what to do... By the time I reached home I felt slightly calmer. After telling to my parents and they trying to calm me, I felt a lot better. However, I don't know how long will I get over this. I think this will take about as long as the times in RV and NJ when we watched the video on abortion.
Afterthoughts:
There were quite a number of people crowding around the old man. I think no one knew what to do, maybe it will be a good idea for us to go for some first aid course so that we can help people in distress while we are in the streets.
Hope the old man get what he wants, live and recover or escape the pain he suffers.
I really hope that I won't have nightmare tonight... I hope I never ever will to see any scene like this anymore...
So much things have happened this week, I wonder is this a test for me or a remainder for me to cherish things around me...
I never ever want to go through another week like this!
