Yesterday my daughter could have been killed. A car jumped a median crashing into the car in front of her. Both cars immediately burst into flames. Four people lost their lives in those flames. If my daughter had not jammed on her brakes, she would have been the fifth fatality. She called for help and waited helplessly while the cars and their passengers burned. What I take from this besides an incredible sense of gratitude for the life of my daughter and an immense sorrow for those who didn't survive, is the often-stated fact that Life is Precious. We don't know what is around the next corner. I, for one, am going to start appreciating every little moment. We miss so many moments, filled with fear, worry and crazy beliefs that don't serve us. Love every moment, good or bad! Don't take anyone or anything for granted while journeying together!
