Have you been in a road crash?

yeah a lady failed to stop at a stop sign and caused me to t-bone her it totaled out my ride i think the whole frame got bent because the sunroof wouldn't even close all the way. After the accident i was scared to death my heart was racing and i was trembling. I was really surprised i was alive and walking. I knew it was a miracle. All i could think about that day was i could have died just like that and left the earth not ever fulfilling the destiny GOD has for me, I could have been killed and never have apologized to the people i've been ugly to or not have treated right.It made me want to live differently because you never know when it's your last day on earth so each day i treat as if it were my last. And yeah i'm still a bit paranoid about getting hit but at least now i have a big new tougher gmc truck versus the small lincoln sport sedan that got totaled.

No but I witnessed one right in front of my eyes a couple of months ago.Young guy lost control of his car driving in front of me.Went right up in the air and turned over three times in a field.He was out like a shot before it burst in to flames.He was the double of my son who had just left on a years trip to Australia.It made me think how fleeting life could be and how I was glad my son was out there doing his thing.Every day is precious.

Oh yeah,glad you're still in one piece.Get out there,time's a wasting.

Yes, a couple.
Rolled a car when I was young, due to my belief that I was a brilliant driver at age 17.
Had a few minor things that weren't my fault since, but no injury.
Glad to hear you're OK, don't be paranoid, just be careful and consider that somewhere in one of those cars in an idiot that thinks he/she's a better driver than he/she is.
I learned to drive at age 11, but learned to drive properly a lot later.

I'm glad you're ok. :)

I wish I could say the accident I went through made me look at life differently, but in reality, it's just made me paranoid. :(

I've been in a couple, not at fault, doesn't really matter who is/was...walked away. One time with the whole family coming back from FL. Ended up in the hospital and stayed with friends for a few days..missed a lot of work and our health/bodies/bones will never be the same, but one of my friends got killed in one last year...I pulled up to the scene just a little while after it happened...could not evn tell it was his vehicle and went on to work...found out a couple of hours later that it was him, had a very hard time with it. I drive past the place daily and think about him then and it saddens me, especially since I see his wife wekly (I help her by maintaining her yard). I often think 'what if I would have left the house just a few moments earlier?...could have been me. It was simply a 'freak accident'. A car crossed the road went airborne and instantly killed him...but there cannot be any ill feelings about the other driver...he had a heart attack while driving, died and caused the accident. I believe what the bible has to say about this is true in every way...
'I returned to see under the sun that the swift do not have the race, nor the mighty ones the battle, nor do the wise also have the food, nor do the understanding ones also have the riches, nor do even those having knowledge have the favor; because time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all.Â For man also does not know his time. Just like fishes that are being taken in an evil net, and like birds that are being taken in a trap, so the sons of men themselves are being ensnared at a calamitous time, when it falls upon them suddenly.' - Ecclesiastes 9:11,12

yes...things like this can happen to any of us @ any time!!!

I remember that I called my wife that day and cried on the phone and hugged my children when I got home, yes thing like these make me love them more/deeper...so please take time to 'show' love today, while you have opportunities to do so.
