Accidental Post

Up to this point in my life, I've never had a brush with death. There I was yesterday watching an out of control SUV barreling down on me and my measly Toyota. My life flashed before my eyes as two seconds felt like an eternity. When all was over, nobody was seriously hurt. Lucky. Thankful. It's moments like these that makes you take a step back. It made me think of my family and how much they really mean to me. They bring joy to me everyday, and for this I am thankful. So what do I come away with? A new found respect for the suddenness of life. Take in each moment and cherish it. They might be cliches, but that's where I'm at and where I intend to be for a long time. Thanks for reading this blog and feel free to chime in.

I like it when people say "They might be cliches, but that's where I'm at" or sentiments along those lines. it's definitely good to embrace cliche-dom unashamedly, coz its, y'know, true a lot of the time.
glad everything turned out ok, even tho this the first time iv come across this blog (thanks hype machine..)
