[[ 63 ]] I Can Only Win Today

                               


Today, I won.

Driving to work this morning on wintry roads... my vehicle hit a patch of ice and spun out, sliding across three lanes of busy traffic. I narrowly missed ramming another driver - and was slipping across the road toward a guard rail when I finally managed to bring the car safely to a stop.
No damage. Didn't hit anything or hurt anybody. I pulled back into the right lane and continued on to work.

Today.  This time.   This time, I won.   I get to go home and have another day.

Maybe next time.. - I'm not so lucky.
Or maybe next time.. it's you. Or somebody you would hate to lose too soon.
                     


Don't wait, people. 
Don't wait to champion Love; make it right today.

Winning lasts a day. Regrets? A lifetime.

Racer X: It doesn't matter if racing never changes. What matters is if we let racing change us. Every one of us has to find a reason to do this. 
You don't climb into a T-180 to be a driver. You do it because you're driven.
