So today I was blessed. I was blessed that I wasn't hurt. I was blessed that my car appears to have no damage. I was blessed that the lady whose car I hit, was just about the nicest person I'd ever like to meet. And this was after I rear-ended her. I was blessed with the grace to not panic and keep calm as we talked about how to handle the situation and exchanged information. I was blessed in that I didn't shake for hours like I did when someone hit me two years ago. I was blessed that I had decided to go into work early, so I wasn't late. I was blessed that as soon as I started my car again, I realized how blessed I was instead of being upset that I got in the accident in the first place.
It is really amazing to be looking at an unfortunate event from this perspective, seeing everything that went right. I can see how God is taking care of me. So now I'll just continue to trust Him, that the cost of the damage to the other car won't keep my plans from moving forward. Or, if I can't go forward, that those plans were not His.
Pax Christi!
