Well, today was pretty good except the fact i almost died today. Seriously, i almost died & it makes me look at things a whole lot different & a whole lot more priveleged to be on Earth. Anyways, the story goes like this:

A few days ago the Sentra was recalled because of something in the gas tank (We never really noticed anything in the first place, but hey, you never know so we sent it anyways). Well, yesterday we got it back and this morning. We first headed to McDonalds & waited in the line for a little while, we pulled out of McDonalds & mom said she needed to get gas. So we filled it up for the first time. I was reading something inside the car & mom started the pump waiting to hear the "click" of the automatic shutoff (the thing where it detects whether or not it's full). We never heard it..but i happen to look to the right & see these two painters in white yell & point at the car. I opened the door & looked down and it was a GIANT puddle of gas. At first, i thought the shutoff thing just didn't work & it was leaking gas from the pump - But it turns out that Nissan Sentra people MUST Have done something wrong with it, because it was working perfectly before we gave it to the recall but apparently they messed it up even worse than it was before. That was EXTREMELY dangerous because the smallest amount of heat could ignite the gasoline & kill everyone there. Yeah, it was definately a sign from God or something because i've been sort of praying to myself for him to send me a sign or not that he's still here. I believe a sign of negativity is better than a positive because it shows just how drastic God is in your life. It hit me when i got home from school how important these thoughts were. I definately regained my faith & hope in God. Thank GOD for those men in white that pointed the gas was leaking. & Ben if you're reading this thank you SO much for giving me a ride to school (Which for some reason was my biggest concern because it hadn't quite hit me yet the seriousness of the situation). As for now, i take back any & all doubts in God i've had in my past. It seriously has effected me drastically - I don't think for the bad - but for the good simply because it opened my eyes to the world around me.

Thank God for every day you have, because you never know when something just might happen to change it, or worse - End it.
