Today wwas quite bizarre,for a short time. Tell me what you think here.

I'm taking an eastbound bus,to then connect with a southbound bus to head downtown. I get off the first bus about a block away from the S.-bound stop.

I'm walking East and suddenly I take a header! Seems I tripped over one of those things in a sidewalk that have the rectagular lid on it,(the cement around it was uneven! )

I'm outside a local high school fortunately and I find their nurses office. She gives me two band aids and lets me use the washroom to wash my now skinned knee (looking at me like I'm up to something the whole time! )

I leave there and head back twords the intersection and I see now that there is a fire truck there and after I get closer I see there's
been a collision between 2 cars,right alongside the crosswalk paint!

Now... this c-walk leads to a convenience store across from the S. bound bus stop and sometimes before I catch that bus i cross over,go into that store and buy a snack or a drink. I don't know if I would have done that because I tripped long before I got to the corner.

If I had though,I might have been right in the middle of all that,because one way or the other,only about 10 to 15 minutes passed between my fall and my return! Whiich leads me,finally,to my point.

Forgetting whether one believes in miracles or God or not,I believe I was meant to take that fall! I looked at how bad that crash was and realized I "might" have been crossing had I not fell! I was gone long enough to avoid that whole mess.

I honestly feel I was saved by the powers that be,because I can't just dismiss it in my mind as a mere "coincidence". I think God,Jesus,Angels or whatever kept me from that intersection.

Now,tell me what you think,without turning it into a big religious "smack-down" okay? Been a somewhat shaken but feeling better,Borderstone. Bye.
