so here's the story;
there's this guy at my school, daniel, a senior, a friend of matt's (refer to my 3rd post)
& maybe i've passed him in the halls and said a small hey or hello..but i don't know him well.
anyways..friday night he was in a wreck, he lived..but sadly his gf, christa didn't.
she wasn't from my school or town, she lived outside of nashville somewhere,
&& so nobody knew her..but we all knew daniel loved her.
friday night daniel met her and her father at the halfway mark to pick her up.
she was going to spend the weekend with his family since sunday was daniel's 18th birthday.
on the way back, not 20 minutes after she had got out of her father's car and into daniel's, he overcorrected himself driving and the car flipped 7 times, killing christa instantly.
it is horrible, daniel is doing good, but still blames himself..i can't even begin to imagine the pain he must be feeling.
but still,
maybe God chose this to happen to him because He knew Daniel was strong enough to handle it...
but it doesn't make it any less awful or any more comprehendable,
i never even met christa, just learned her name today.
but still;;
this past weekend she affected my life greatly..........
we really don't know how much time we have on earth.
so.
don't.
take.
ANYTHING.
for.
granted.

ohh mary;
that's a really good thing to look at;
because a guy who went to a school here in town, was driving his g/f home late from a game, and once he dropped her off, on his way home, he wrecked and died.
but your right, you never know how much time you have, and your only promised today.
thanks for posting that, i reallly need to start thinking that way!
love you dollface :]]
