I Survived a Violent Motorcycle Crash!
Well when my dad, who is not a young man, told me for a second he thought I was dead--a testament to how violent it looked--and then sacrificed himself to run out in traffic passing around us at 70-80 mph to basically save me, that was a rather eye-opening experience. Changes your perspective on life. My dad could have died trying to save me. The thought of that is a tough pill to swallow.
