The last couple of weeks have been pretty rough and extremely exhausting for me, i have been dealing with a lot, both mentally and physically, and because of how fragile i am, it’s been taking a toll on my health. The number of hours i sleep daily has been reduced quite a bit, and even when i eventually fall asleep, especially past my usual bedtime hours, i still end up waking very early, which is something that has been occurring for quite some time now…
In the absence of sleep, movies and social media platforms keep me company. They keep me preoccupied until i get extremely tired and fall asleep from there. Inadequate sleep is bad for the health. I didn’t know how bad this was getting until last week when i was this close to falling off a commercial transport while going for a delivery…
HOW IT HAPPENED…
I was in a tricycle last week, although i was supposed to sit at the back comfortably with two other passengers, but because of what i had in my hand i couldn’t sit with them, and moreover their size wasn’t something to write home about. They were quite the size, and i didn’t want to be made uncomfortable, so i decided to sit at the front with the tricycle driver…
I sat down in front with him, with one of my hands glued to the Iron holding together the roof of the tricycle for safety purpose. I was putting on a vintage and a long trouser, with the frame I wanted to go deliver in between my legs, with my other hand holding it firmly against damage. I had my earpods on for noise cancellation purpose. It was quite windy that day that i got extremely comfortable in that dangerous position, and because of the inadequate sleep i’ve been getting lately, i didn’t know how it happened, but i found my eyes closing bit my bit just right beside the driver…
If not for the loud car horn that brought me back to my senses, i honestly can’t say what would have happened to me last week, especially with the fact of where i was seated, which is exactly one of the reasons why i don’t like sitting at the front seat of a tricycle. It is a very dangerous position. If only i had chose to sit down at the back seat, atleast there will be irons to guard me and a soft foam to lay my back on…
Honestly, it wasn’t funny at all. I thought of all the possible things that could have happened to me if only I had fallen off the tricycle…
I was quite overwhelmed by what just happened that i had to head back home immediately. The fear of what almost happened kept me from sleeping upon getting home. I went into the bathroom and took a long shower before landing on my bed. And just before I knew it, i was fast asleep…
I woke up feeling more energized and rejuvenated, then I dressed up to go get my work done. After that incident, i made quality sleep my topmost priority, and now i sleep till I’m tired of sleeping…
