On that unfortunate day, i went to class all prepared to teach. Everything went well when all of a sudden in the middle of solving a case study, i just COULD NOT remember how to continue. ALL OF A SUDDEN my mind was blank!! I tried to recall and i COULD NOT even recall the principles and stuff relating to that topic. (Abel, I can understand what a totally white room devoid of any color would look like...I've been there. Haha!)
Oh... it was so frustrating. I told the class i could not remember (don't know how they see me then) and asked them to explain to me. I COULD NOT EVEN RELATE their explanations and reasoning to the question. GAH!! I tried to calm down... still could not fathom the connection. MY MIND WAS DEVOID, EMPTY, WHITE... yeah... literally WHITE. I thought it was a sign of stress and wrote off the whole incident as such.
(after our P5&6 retreat), On Monday morning 11/6, as i reached out to grab hold of my toothbrush... *SCREAM* I COULD NOT remember which one was mine, COULD NOT even recalled the color. I just stood there for like an eternity and STARED at those toothbrushes in front of me...which one is mine? WHICH ONE IS MINE?? *SCREAM*
SCARY...signs of Alzheimer?? NOOOOoooooooooooooooooo
Then the white room exploded into a brilliance of white blinding light.. and then i COULD 'SEE' again... everything is in it own place with its own color. Everything in its order. HALLELUJAH, PRAISE THE LORD!!
That's one thing i would not wanna lose. MY MIND!!!
