It Happens

On Friday I had a crazy experience - I was almost run off the road by a semi truck! I was merging onto the interstate, and the semi decided to switch to the right lane just as I was getting into it. I braked quickly and got behind him.

It didn't really scare me at the time, but then my girlfriend asked: "Are you alright!?" And then I started thinking... "Man, that was pretty crazy!" "What if he had run us off?" "We could have rolled!" "That bastard could have killed us!"

Know what I've realized? It's a #%$*#$@ waste of time! Now that I look back on it, I feel so stupid just for taking the time to think about crap like that! Shit happens and you just have to keep driving!

I know it is human nature to wonder "what if?" But I'm giving it up, at least as much as I can. It kinda goes along with what I said last week...just quit worrying and do it! Keep driving, keep living, and quit worrying about the shit that happens along the way.
