Life

life has a funny way of working itself out... One day your going about your business and the next your in a car accident and in an immense amount of pain. You find your vehicle is totalled and you begin to question what it is in life that truly matters to you. They say everything happens for a reason, I would like to believe that. There has to be some good that comes from everything.
Yesterday my significant other and I were in a car accident, ICBC found it to be one hundred per cent the other drivers fault but I still don't see why we have to be punished. Our truck is being written off, it is my boys baby, and to be perfectly honest it has been a large part of our life over the past year and a half. But in the end it is just a vehicle... and the important thing is that we are all alive.
Certainly we are both a little bit shaken up, as is our dog that was thrown into the back of my seat during the impact, but no one is dead and that is truly all that matters. Material posessions can be replaced, injuries will heal over time, but my other-half, the half that makes me whole I could not do without.
I think this accident was a reminder of what I need out of this life and how I must appreciate what I have, which is something I have not been doing much of lately.
I came to the realization that the things that have been bothering me and stressing me out lately are not worth being stressed out about, life will work itself out, it has too. I need to stop stressing and relax and enjoy the ride... even when it gets a bit bumpy!
(If you hadn't clued in I decided it was time to start blogging again. Life has been a little blah lately and I think it's because I haven't been able to write or create since I've been out of school and unable to find a fulfilling job, so for now while I wait for that to come along I will fill the time with my random ramblings or sorts)
