Brush with death

(1/4) > >>

kylerprochaska:
Today on my way to work I came as close to death as I ever have before.  I was northbound on a two lane highway going about 65mph and a southbound semi truck pulling a cattle trailer wasn't paying attention.  in a matter of miliseconds he was halfway in my lane and I had to swerve to miss him.  The semi/trailer was less than a foot outside of my driver's side mirror.  If I wouldn't have seen him I would surely be dead on impact from the head on collision. When I looked in my mirror after it had happened the vehicle behind him was slamming on the brakes, Im guessing because he though there was going to be an accident.  I feel darn lucky to be alive and have never felt more thankful to have the life that I do right now.  Just thought I would share this story with you to remind everyone to thank whatever God you worship for each day you have because you never know when it is going to end. Stay safe out there everyone.
