This big rig pulled in front of me doing a left turn while I was driving along straight and I hit the wheels on the trailer. CHP showed up and said if I had been another 4 feet over, I would have gone under the rig and probably been decapitated. Instead I walked away without a scratch or bruise.

3 years ago, I rolled my car at freeway speeds and I walked away also. I don't understand what's my significance.

I guess "god is on my side" is one explanation....

It's not that He's saving your life.. it's that He's trying to kill you, and keeps missing.. ;)

Well at least ya didn't roll the car again..by the way what's that like..going round and round and round then it stops?? I'll bet it's real noisy and the change in the ash tray is all over the place...:confused:
 

God has nothing to do with it, trust me when I say this, I have been brought back from the dead twice in my life, there is no God.

Did God tell you he was saving your life? If not, how do you know it wasn't the devil, who wants to keep you alive because he has something horrible lined up for your future?
Or maybe Lady Luck has shined upon you, or Hope from Pandora's box has latched onto you, or maybe Zeus is saving you, or could it be Ra?

Wow. What, if anything, did you experience during the time you were gone til you were brought back? Or was it like you just woke up from sleeping?

My parents used to tell me that god was trying to tell me something with all the car wrecks I was having, I kept telling them when I had one in front of a church I'd pay attention.

~6 years ago, I was in a particularly bad cycle wreck, totaled my street bike, broke my arm, collapsed my lung, ended up in ICU for a day & a week in a regular hospital bed... Healed up enough a couple of months later & took my 2nd cycle out for a spin, and was nearly t-boned by a hearse @ highway speeds.

I parked the bike & listed it for sale that day, haven't been on one since. Am not one for strong beliefs, etc, but the 1st cycle wreck was bad enough, if there really are messages from god, I think he was trying to send me one.

The moral of the story is for you to sell your car & use public transportation. Or @ least get one that crashes well & has side impact air bags.

There is a saying that the flap of a butterfly's wings can contribute to a hurricane miles away.

Perhaps your significance is that of the butterfly's.
