Thank you for this thoughtful personal piece. I hope all- cars, family and Nathan's things- were barely touched by this bump. Yours is a lesson I've taken to heart! ❤️

Your story reminds me that it is always good to put things in proper perspective - it is our perception of what happens to us that really matters!

I’m sorry you had another mishap, hoping there was no damage. Big sky thinking ( I’ve participated in it in the workplace years ago) but did not have this name for it. Inspiring message. Thank you!

No damage, thankfully. I actually hit Nathan's bicycle, which was mounted on the rear of his car, and that was okay too. It was a flukey accident, so I wasn't going fast when I hit him. But oh, did I laugh!
