I have long marveled at how human beings are simultaneously so tough and so fragile. You think of some of the amazing stories of survival juxtaposed with minor incidents that result in death. That’s just the way it is but it’s kind of hard to reconcile that seeming contradiction.
Me too.
It's rather humbling.
I used to ponder such things. Now I take a more clear eyed view:
“When your time is up, your time is up.”
When is your time up? Only God knows, and he ain’t talkin.
Filipino college kid in some mid west university did a back flip last week. The story was on Drudge.
Landed wrong, broke his neck, died on the spot. Young kid. Was known to do really good back flips. This one went all wrong, now he’s gone.
Got the whole world in His hands.
