Good day... Me and my aunt had a nice afternoon talk today. We've talked about a lot of things, past memories and future plans. Then she mentioned an incident that almost send her to the hospital or it can be a lot worse. She liked to walk and since we live in a subdivision, walking is both an exercise and a leisure. She usually walks in the side walk and then it happened, A few seconds later after walking under a coconut tree, a coconut fruit dropped from above. The coconut tree is about as high as a 3-4 story house, so you can just imagine the impact of it's fruit to someone's head. Luckily she missed by seconds. a second earlier or a second later would had made a difference between coming home or going to the hospital. I'm just glad she's ok and now she's avoiding to walk under any coconut tree in our subdivision, sad to say there's a lot of them. How about you guy's, did you have the same experience? Did you pray and give thanks when an accident waiting to happened just passed you by?
