Be careful driving and walking
Last night, while I was walking on the pavement, I saw a man being hit by a car as he jumped over a steel isle and about to cross the second street.
As the man was hit by this white car, his body somersaulted into the air and dropped on the ground with a thud sound. He probably became unconscious. I do not know if this man is still alive.
The driver, an aged man went around his car to look at the victim and was shocked by what he saw. Several people rushed to the scene. I left the scene and went home wondering what could have happened to these 2 men.
For both these men, it was just supposed to be a routinely evening of an ordinary day. But I am sure this event would change both their lives forever. The driver might be imprisoned and lose his freedom and the pedestrian might lose his ability to walk or his life.
I am not to judge whose fault was this accident. But the lesson is clear - let us not take each moment of our life for granted. Although it may be sometimes tiresome and mundane, having life and freedom is a precious gift from God that we should handle with utmost care.
