Accidents happen

Last night I took our daughter to a friend who lives in a near by village. Just about 10 km/ 6 miles. It was already past 9 pm - a peaceful warm summer night. We never think about going on such drives, we always expect difficulties on long journeys.

On my way home, the intersection to our village was blocked. Many blue lights of police and ambulance were dancing in the night. There was a long row of cars waiting to get out of the village, passing by the accident. I turned around and made a little detour to use another intersection, feeling full of gratitude of being safe and full of sympathy for those injured in the accident. It must have happened shortly after we had passed that spot.

It shows us to live every day as if it was our last one - and always to say a loving goodbye to our loved ones. Accidents happen - usually just when you don't expect them.

Don't forget to be grateful for every day we are allowed to live!
