I dropped my friend off and as I was leaving the driveway...a voice told me
"do up your seat belt" I ignored the voice and continued on, but within
INCHES I heard the voice again say to me..."put on your seatbelt"
You must understand that the year was 1975....practically no-one was wearing
seatbelts then, and I did not make it a practice too. Actually I made it a
practice not too wear a seatbelt in those days.
Anyway, I did my seatbelt up, and left the driveway. As I went down the
street, a car coming towards me lost total control and rammed into the fence
on my side of the road (which on the other side was the Q.E Highway...a large
highway in Canada) The car missed me by a few feet (but only because I had
just enough time to see the driver losing control..and I could slow down and
come to a stop), and I ran to tell the gas station across the street to call
the police and an ambulance.
The young girl inside the car had died instantly, and the police told me that
if I had been a few seconds earlier, she would have hit my car at a speed of
70 miles an hour.
That voice that day I KNOW was my guardian angel warning me.......and she or
he added many years on to my life by making me stop for a few seconds to put
on my seatbelt!
