In A Blink Of An Eye
Author: siggyIt 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.
