My Life Being stuck In one of the most remote places In Cambodia does not seem like part of a vacation plan for anyone. In our lives, there will always be times when things do not go as the way you planed. Due to not preparing for any emergencies, our family learned a very important lesson in life. I was 13 when this incident happened. My family and I were on holiday in Sandhog province when we were left praying for help as our car got caught in the wet and muddy soil on the border of Sandhog and
Henna province. We had been driving for six hours when we reached Luminous. The stone that made up the road became dirt, buildings turned Into trees and cars turned Into cows. As we moved on, our surrounding became more and more remote. Soon there was no sight of any human being, only dirt roads stretched out like veins running through our bodies.
The wind of the coming storm began to pick up speed. Trees swayed from side to side as the gloaming sky rumbled and the lighting flashed.
I tried to control my fear but the sound of the storm seems to suppress my ability to control my emotions. Then the unthinking happened. Two of our back wheels were sucked by the muddy soil; It could no long propel us forward. We were stuck. Father stepped hard on the gas pedal over and over again but it was in vain.
Trapping in the middle of nowhere turned my fear into tears. What happen if there were bandits? What happened if there was a landslide? I could not help but thought of all the possible ways of how I will die.
This doesn’t seem good, wave got to hurry. “Father’s words seem to have woken me up from a dream. I was no longer crying. The fear of dying gave me strength. I got out of the car and with all of my strength, I pushed. However my effort yields no result. Then an Idea struck me. I went to the back of the car and grabbed the two paintings that I have bought in Kingdom and placed it under the back wheels. Again, we pushed. As I hoped and prayed, the car went over the painting and we were freed. Smiles followed by relieve were on everyone’s face.
As e continued on with our Journey, the rain did not stop and the chances of us trapping In the muddy soil were still there but this time I was ready. I would not sit and Walt for father to save me. My fear had turned Into strength. For the rest of the journey we trapped in the muddy soil for three more times but we managed to overcome the obstacle as one. This incident made me realized that no matter what difficulties we faced, as long as we have the perseverance, determination and the willingness to work as one, we will be able to overcome it.
