How precious is life.

I think that it is a safe assumption that most people forget how percious life is, and just how quickly it can be taken away. Most of us live our daily lives not thinking that it could be our last, and that's alright. But what if it was your last day on earth? How would you be remember? Did you do all the things you wanted to do? Did you tell that special someone that you you love them? Did you kiss your kids goodbye, or tell them you are proud of them? These are all very important questions, ones I hope we don't have to ponder to much on.
In the summer of 2005 I had an experience that made me see life in a different way, and think of those questions. I had just dropped my husband off at work and was on my way back home. I was coming up 75 north and as I was crossing the bridge there was a pick-up truck that was cutting in and out of traffic. Once we were back in Ohio at the 75/Fort Washington Way merge this pickup truck cut me off and slammed on their brakes. I wasn't able to slow down quick enough so to keep from rear-ending the car I jerked my car to the left and lost control.The pickup truck hit me, flipped on it's roof due to the impact and I was sent spinning into more traffic. When my car stopped in the grassy medim I opened my eyes and saw the pickup truck on it's roof. I was scared, the first thought that went through my mind was "OMG, I killed someone." I picked up my cell phone and called 911, they asked me if the other driver was alright. I got out of my car and ran to theirs to check. The female driver was hanging upside down still strapped in her seat, but was alright. Police, fire and EMT came, but everyone was alright. We both walked away with no injuries, but most likely a different view on life.
Now as a woman, I am blessed with the greatest gift of all, the gift to bare children. I am sadden when I see so many woman who take this gift for granted, this is never what God intended it to be. Sexual intercourse has became something that a lot of women use to 1)get guys, 2)show love to someone or 3)have fun. And when someone gets pregnant outside of marriage, the most common thing to do it abort the unborn child. Most of these children are unwanted, and so it becomes so easy to that that precious life and toss it aside because it doesn't fit in with our lifestyles. A child's life is the most precious thing that there is, and people don't see it. We our so upset when we lose a loved one, what about an unborn child?
