The day I flew like a superman.


The day I flew like a superman.

I went back to my hometown.

I remember the road was much steeper.

I skidded down this very road.

And I flew down my bicycle

like a superman!

The fading scars near my right eyebrow and right forearm are reminders.

It seems like only yesterday.

Only I have forgotten how to ride a bicycle! 🙁

    Thank goodness you are ok. I also flew down a hill and had scrapes on knees, elbows and yes, the scars remain! I quit cycling after that scary experience.

    There was such a freedom in riding a bicycle as a child. I still have scars on my knees and I still laugh when I look at them and remember that girl who was so free of responsibility.
