just blink

life isn't always beautiful, you look up to the sky and see breath-taking marshmellow clouds intertwined with peaks of sunlight oneday and the next its heart thrashing hailstorms overwhelming you with darkness. that same field of green grass full of white wild countless daisies could be destroyed in a matter of seconds with flames leaving behind nothing but sut and ruin.


sunday morning was a wake up call for alot of people, including myself. and it is really sad, that it takes something so tragic to happen like a car accident, to open up your eyes and make you realize that your life can be taken away from you in less than what you would call a second.


 just blink your eye. did you pay attention to what you just did? it's really hard to get the concept of it, because we are human and we think we are so invinsible to the world, but if you think about how fast it takes you to blink your eye it really gets the motor running. it's like we think we are superman or something right? we think things like, "ah that will never happen to me", or "i just won't think about those things happening to me" but the hard fact is, is that we need to. life is so much shorter than we think.


two people lost their lives instantly in that wreck, leaving behind three who are now going through unimaginable pain, extensive surgeries, and not to mention the emotional scars they will have to wear for the rest of their lives knowing that they lost their best friends. 


the whole thing is so sad, it really breaks your heart to even think what pain they are going through and their families as well. and it really puts things into perspective. we shouldn't take life for granted, not even a second of it. life is like a game of chess, one wrong move could send you in the wrong direction. so we should take each step we take with careful thought and cherish every minute of it.
