In A Blink Of An Eye

Author: siggy

It happened in a blink of an eye.  I was not thinking.  And driving probably a little too fast on that stretch of road nearby.  A deer darted in front of me from my left.  I reacted instinctively and stepped on the brakes just enough to miss it by inches.

It was a stretch of the road I am usually more cautious on.  Deer cross the road to drink from the small creek below.  I have often flushed deer here but I was preoccupied.  It was the also the middle of the day.

After that close call I was shaking.  You bet I drove slower and more carefully on the way home.  Your life can change in a split second.  Sometimes we forget that.  Angels are often watching over us.
