STRANDED UNDER THE BRIDGE

Spending time outside home is exciting yet dangerous at times. You’ll never know what is waiting for you there. Accidents, murders, rapes, robbery and all other crimes often occur when you are outside your home. However, there is no way that we can stay forever at home. We learn things that may sometimes be not available at home. It may be dangerous but its one of the realities of life.

So, we made another trip to Cagayan de Oro City. We rode via our private car. Everything was going pretty well until we passed under the bridge and the car just stopped. Gush! We are in the middle of the street! I was so ashamed. I did not get out from the car. My father pushed the car with my mother driving it until we made it at the side of the street. I would say that we are still blessed for it is allowed to park on that side of the road and we are not directly hit by sunlight for we are covered by the bridge. In addition to that, my parents grew up here so they know the place. We just waited for our father to come back with the auto-mechanic. I’m so glad that nothing worst did happen. It took hours to repair the car but gladly we were able to go back home at the same day safely.

This, among others, happens to every individual. All we must do is be prepared.
