dodging bullets

In the last few years i've had some car problems I had one car with all sorts of repairs needed at the end of its day and I had to get rid of it. This car left me in a BAD position as i had traded car worth good money towards it only to be left holding the bag. I was bitter and frustrating about the bullet i was unable to dodge. But one time i drove it at almost 100mph while my wife was in labor only to find out shortly after the brakes where shot and i coulda been killed But i wasnt... Another time i drove it 1200 miles only to get there and realize it had no oil in it i colda been stranded on the side oft he road with my siz kids but i wasnt.

I got rid of that car got another car. This car was just to get me through till something "gave" in my life and i could get a solution to my car issues. well this vehicle i took for an oil change the other day only to find the axel was about to fall off and i was one pot hole away from death. I just took a roadtrip with my family I coulda been killed and all my family too But i'm still here!

Someone left us some money so we where able to just go buy another vehicle thats safe reliable and well newer. so no more worries i was able to fix this other car with the axel issue. Now i have 3 cars and I feel as if i have too much!

I guess i'll sell it keep it or give it away I dunno. But It got me thinking about all the times i **** and moan about the bullet i was unable to dodge and I fail to even know about the ones I"m dodging sometimes. When we complain about some problem perhaps we are lucky ot have that problem vs the problem we escaped?

I'm not even suppost to be here today. But i am No idea why.
