January 21, 2001      2:30 a.m.

Tonight I could have die,
I didn't.
Tonight God spared my life,
I don't know why.
Tonight was a mircle.
I'm thankful to be alive.
Tonight I wore my seat belt.


This really short and I haven't posted in a long time so I'm a little rusty....Last saturday night I had a wreck...If it hadn't been for me wearing my seat belt I probably would have died. It made me think back to a couple of years ago when my best friend died in a crash.....She didn't have her seat belt on and flew out of the car....I guess what I am trying to say is that if you don't wear you seat belt, plese, please start.

Very good message here. My condolences about your friend and it's good to see you're alive and well. EVERYBODY READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY! TRUTH IS SPOKEN HERE!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Kit and sugarpie~ Thank you for your replys and you concern.

Thy~ I do hope that you start wearing your seat belt. LiFe is a gift that we only get once, why risk losing it when all you have to do is take a few seconds to buckle up. Thank you for your reply.
