a day I will never forget

17 years ago from today October 13, 1995 3 kids from my high school got killed from an head of collision and that accident really hit home for me. A year and half before that I was in car accident too and I walked away with just a broke humor bone and collar bone could of easily been killed or paralyzed. Both accidents should of never happen. There were 5 people in that car that night which was just driving too fast on dark road and didn't see the curve and hit a tree only 2 survived from that night and today one of them wrote on their facebook page stating that their grateful to be alive but will never forget his friends who lost their life's that cold October night. It brought tears down to my face b/c I too surveyed such a traumatic accident you don't realize just how lucky you are.  For so long I try to forget the pain that I have encounter over years but today I cried a little bit while talking on phone with my mother tonight b/c you don't realize how precious life until you have lost someone. Even though I was never close to either the 3 kids that were killed that night but when actual well we all knew them and will never be forgotten.
