Stunning.

A Split Second

This last Saturday a co-worker was ‘taken’ from his wife and family. In a motorcycle accident with his wife he was given a split second to decide what he valued more the life of his wife or his own. Investigators say the way he landed the bike virtually saved her life.

A split second.

I briefly knew Steve, however, I respected him and the way he treated everybody he worked with. All day Sunday Anthony and I talked about just two days before seeing him in the office grabbing a cup of coffee.

A split second.

If given a split second I fear I would beg to not be ripped from the embrace of my family, to make the reality of how precious our lives are not so harsh. Have I done everything I needed, said everything that should have been said, will everyone in my life know exactly what they mean to me and how blessed I am to know them

A split second.

If we lived our lives for every ‘split second’ would things be different, or would fear engulf and keep us from actually living?
