“Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death”

Because I just ended my first year of college and coincidentally just moved back home for the summer, there were a ton of errands for me to take care of. Upon completing those various tasks, the brakes went out on my car, while I was driving it. 

It is one of the scariest things in the world to be in control of a 2 ton vehicle that cant be stopped. In a matter of seconds my life flashed before my eyes. Most people when referencing these types of situations speak of all the people they love and accomplishments they still want to achieve. My experience was a bit different. 

Instead of thinking of all the good in my life that I didnt want to leave behind, I had visions of all the poor choices Ive made and people Ive wronged. I have come to realize that I have dished out more than my fair share of ill will. 

So to anyone reading this, if i have spoken or acted against you, at any point throughout my lifetime, you have my deepest apologies. Hence forth I am doing my best to limit the possibility of my negative actions. Im learning to keep myself in check. Hopefully my next self realization wont be a result of a misfortunate event.
