I got in a car accident and it was worse, they thought i was going to die. That was when i was 12yrs' old i believe and i'm 16. Ever since i've barely put my seat belt on and i drive a car now. At first i was really jumpy getting in a moving vehicle but after a while like i said you'll forget about it. Also about a year ago, i was at a red light with my dad, it was at a 4 way intersection and late at night a big yukon thing came TUMBLING down the street about 5 times, then finally stopped in front of us, on it's roof. Expect the unexpected; that's true. I'll never forget that.

I'm not saying that what you experienced was not bad, but be reminded of how incredibly lucky you are to be virtually unharmed and think of this as a wake up call to right all the wrongs in your life because now you can see how easily life can be taken from you. Think about the positives for this happening...I'm glad you're okay! [ LiSaxOBaBii's advice column | Ask LiSaxOBaBii A Question ]
