Things you never thought you'd see or do.....
I put this in Tilted Life because well, it IS about life. What I'm looking for is some of the things that all of you never thought that you would see or do. I mean, the things that totally took you by surprise and later made you think and wonder. I'm also curious how it changed you or your thinking if at all.
For examples....
I never thought I'd actually be present during the amputation of a finger. No it wasn't mine, and it made me think how people can be so stupid at times.
I never thought I'd see my father laid up in the hospital and have semi-emergency surgery for an infection near his lungs. My family just doesn't get sick like that. I'm still evaluating this one....
I never thought I'd thwart a kidnapping. Right place, right time, and correct actions all added up to the woman being returned safely by police. Proved to me that not only am I capable of action 'under fire', but thinking fairly clearly at the same time.
I never thought I'd see, in person, how people can hold life in such incredulous disregard. All the more reason to hug my wife tight every day.
What has everyone else experienced?
