Standing on the edge of a cliff #1

The afternoon was overcast with a slight chill of 65 degrees. The clouds  were pure white as the wet rain came trickling downward. I was standing around on the green grass staring off at the street. In my hand was a pink and white striped Hula Hoop. Thoughts came into my head with mindless logics of how to Hula! Minutes run by and I heard voices from behind. From the side of my body, I glared over and it was y sister and her friend. Right off the bat, I thought to take the Hula Hoop, jump off the 4ft ledge and round up the sister. Without thinking of the consequences, the feet underneath the body bolted across the green grass. Seconds later, my body flung off the lawn, off the ledge, being suspended in mid air and my hands above the head with the Hula Hoop intact. I look down and within a second I realized this action was stupid. As my body hammered downward fall, I missed both the ladies bodies and nailed the hard concrete with my forehead. A minute runs by and my sister had been comforting me and making sure I wasn't dead. I came too, shacked off the birdies flying above the head, gave two thumbs up and was taken into the house.
     I look back at the life story and realize with ADD, I have to stop and recalculate my actions before I peruse a stunt like the wrangling Hula Hoop situation.
