It was long ago when I was a child... I rode my bike right into the side of a school bus due to absolute incompetence on my part. My bike should have immediately fell once I hit the bus. My head should have been right under the rear tire after I fell leading to my fatal demise. Yet the bike did not fall. My bike remained upright as my front-tire slid across the side of the bus only to fall when the rear-tire of the bus ran over the front-tire of my bike.
It was by a stroke of luck that natural selection did not take place.
As I repeat the scenario in my mind, it seems what occurred did not obey the laws of physics. It almost feels as if the rear of my bike was being held upright by some divine force.
If I am not delusional, it seems many are correct in saying that true accidents of this nature are very rare; people usually only die when their time comes.
That reminds me when I was riding my bike one morning, lost in thought and did not pay attention, crossed the street when a car was approaching and almost hit me...
my bike was in a bad condition and brakes did not work and I was too sloppy / lazy to get it repaired
but this moment they worked! Miraculously, I could not believe it... the car drove by me and those inside looked a bit shocked at the "almost accident" too.
I've almost died lots of times. Actually, Im dying right now in some other parallel reality, dead in another, and totally partying in another.
What meaning did you put on this situation?

My conclusion: For whatever reason, this life of mine has enough potential value that it warrants divine protection.
Believe it or not I was hit by a car
3 times throughout my lifetime, with the most recent incident happening about a year ago. All 3 instances were hit and run accidents, and surprisingly I never found myself even a minor scratch. After realizing that I have no serious injuries I would simply get up (find my shoes, which would always wind up across the street) and just walk it off like nothing happened. I never admitted to the hospital and had no desire to seek out the perpetrators.
I am just glad to be alive in this challenging but exciting times, plus I am not eager to give up my physical vessel just yet
indiGo33, do you look both ways before you cross the street??! Lol jk that's crazy.
When I was six years old, I ran across the street to talk to some people and a car was coming that I didn't see. My mom watching saw me moved by an invisible force out of the way of the car. She swears it was a guardian angel to this day that saved my life.
I do believe we are invincible until we decide to go. I live without fear of death; I will die when I die, and even then that's only my body... There's no reason to fear anything. I do use caution, but not fear.

I have learned to not try to take my life or say when My life can be taken. I have sufficient divine protection as to warrant harming myself before I Can harm myself on my account. When ever I start to manifest the option of "dying" before my time something insanely unusual happens up to and including breaking through 4th 5th and 6th walls until I stop pondering such a thought.
Divine Protection indeed. To know that your death is entirely and absolutely not in your hands but that you could die any second if you really wanted to.
