I have never broken a bone despite being accident-prone.

I’ve tripped so many times over slightly uneven pavement-on a slippery floor, on an errant pebble, even over my own feet, and on thin air.

I’ve even fallen down more than a couple of stairsteps, and while standing on chairs, trying to reach shelves beyond me and once getting out of a jeep during a rainstorm in heels.

But still, I have never broken a bone.

That’s good, I think at least, my bones are stronger than me.

Although sometimes, I think my bones do not like me. They don’t seem to listen.

On those days, my bones do not want to get out of bed, or move or do anything, really.

And sometimes, even my flesh and my nerves and my blood would rather listen to my bones. Not to me. I am afraid of the day when my heart decides to follow suit.

But at least, I have never broken a bone.
