Reminder – April is Distracted Driver Month –  When you Drive, JUST DRIVE…  and Arrive Alive!

Lessons from 9/11, The Annoying Little Things in Life:

by Kranti Gaurav

-As you might know, the head of a major company survived the tragedy of “9/11” in New York because his son started kindergarten.

– Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring donuts.

– One woman was late because her alarm clock didn’t go off in time.

– One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike because of an auto accident.

– One of them missed his bus.

– One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.

– One’s car wouldn’t start.

– One went back to answer the telephone.

– One had a child that dawdled and didn’t get ready as soon as he should have.

– One couldn’t get a taxi.

– The one that struck me was the man who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid. That is why he is alive today.

Now when I am stuck in traffic…

– miss an elevator…

– turn back to answer a ringing telephone…

– all the little things that annoy me… I think to myself…   this is exactly where God wants me to be at this very moment.

The next time your morning seems to be going wrong,

– the children are slow getting dressed,

– you can’t seem to find the car keys,

– you hit every traffic light…don’t get mad or frustrated; it just may be Divine Intervention!
