Don’t drive faster than your angels can fly or is was the secret? Guest Post Form Amy S.
I will never really know for sure, but I have a strong cense that the power of positive thinking and the powers that be saved my life a little over a month ago. I was on my way back from picking up a package at Ups that was not accepted at a previous office space earlier that day and could only be picked up between 7pm and 8pm. I made a quick stop at the bookstore to get the book “Eat Right for Your Blood Type”. I headed onto the I-90 to the I-290. Just after heading over the bridge, I noticed there was a semi on the left of me and he seemed to be going pretty fast, so I looked at my speedometer and I was about 62.
Next thing you know I get about a 2 second warning in my gut that the semi is going to hit me, which was just enough time for me to starting thinking positive. I felt the impact to the driver’s side back door and immediately the car was hooked to the front of the semi bumper to bumper. My headlights were hidden under the semi so I seemed to disappear. He pushed me in reverse for a while and he didn’t slow down. From there I spun out to the right in front of the semi and then off to the left, hitting somewhere else towards the back of the semi and then doing a final 3 spin- spinout! Wow the car came to a stop off the side of the road with just a bit of my front bumper hanging over the road it was mostly hanging off anyway. I jumped out of the car and started to run from the car towards the witness, because I was in shock and very scared. But at the same time I was happy to be alive and franticly breathing. That was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me by far.
The key to this story is that I had a 2 second feeling that I honored. It gave me the time in my mind to prepare my thoughts. They were simply that I wanted to walk away from this accident uninjured and that no other cars would hit me. I felt relaxed and calm and I don’t remember what happened inside the car. That’s it! I didn’t think about all the bad things that could happen, nor did I think about dying. I knew it wasn’t my time and that I had a bigger plan. I did suffer some internal bruising and contusion and I’m still trying to heal from that, but that wasn’t the kind of injury I was trying to avoid it was the living with a breathing tube kind.
My car was totaled and the witness said “he couldn’t believe that I walked away from the accident”. Later that weekend I drove through the area where it happened and I felt an angelic presence and that something great was watching over me that night. My question is was my live spared, because of angels or my own power of suggestion? Or perhaps is it just fate?
