I don't know if it's just me being paranoid but there are a lot of deaths that have been occuring lately due to car accidents. Every time I hear about one, it takes me back to the day of my car accident. I never really thought about how lucky I am to have survived that, and how lucky I am that Rose didn't get hurt. I've made it a habit to pray before I drive, and I occassionally touch my rosary when I get nervous. Seriously, when it comes to driving.. you never know what can happen. I know people don't intentionally get into accidents, but just one slip & everything can go wrong. After my accident I couldn't drive for 2 months and although I've sorta gotten over it, there are certain days that I'll choose not to drive because of the weird feeling I get beforehand. Seriously guys.. I know driving may seem fun and all that but don't fuck around. Don't race!! Don't drive when you don't have your license. Don't try to be cool. I didn't take driving seriously at all before my accident and I guess it was God's way of telling me that if I don't contain myself, something severe can seriously happen. I have my court date next month for the accident and I'm nervous as fuck. I know I would never run a red light, especially considering the fact that we were driving home from school supply shopping, not even talking to eachother and driving the speed limit. I just don't see why I would run a red light? As confident as I am though, everything that happened that day seems like a big blur. As much as I want to forget about it, I don't think I ever will. SO PLEASE BE SAFE WHEN YOU'RE ON THE ROADS! It may not be your fault, but when you're on the roads, others hold you life in their hands.
