I couldn't figure it out, there was something clearly in front of me, within the footprints the old man had left, but I was still failing to grasp them.
I then decided instead of deducing and understanding, to try and practice, and experience it firsthand.
I placed my foot on the first of the footprint set.
Then took a second step and immediately felt the world turning upside down.
It wasn't the world, it was as if I, for trying to move I that pattern had completely forgotten how to even move. I was like a toddler trying to move.
"What the fuck?!" I cursed surprised by what had just occurred.
This wasn't something normal, I just fell from trying to take a single step forward, how is that even conceivable in the realm of possibilities? An old person like me, having lost balance just like that?
With renewed resolve, I stood up, then tried the same thing once again, taking another step only to fall.
