Today I saved someone's life.
I was walking to work and stopped at a corner with a red light. A young man, wearing headphones was next to me. He started walking into the street and I saw a bus coming at him at about 30 mph. I screamed at him, and he stepped back, just as the bus was about to hit him. He could have been killed.
I did not have to walk that way this morning. Sometimes I take different paths on my way to work. If I hadn't gone that way,....He totally lucked out. Or was it luck..?
Just out of curiosity: A lot of people believe there is "A Plan". Some call it "providence", or "divine guidance". Many people live their lives, believing there is a plan, thinking that perhaps they are being punished if things go bad. What's your take?
Frequently I find myself looking back to the cause of my tinnitus, an ototoxic drug a doctor gave me last October. And I kick myself, thinking, if I could only go back in time and not have taken that drug. Or perhaps this thing is fitting into "a plan".
