Default A great day at kings park, bad drive home.

Had a great day, fireworks where fantastic. Me and my family altogether.
Drove home to Bunbury, about 10, then came to a bad accident , fire screams, oh it was hell. Dont know if any fatalities, but cars where on fire , it took us 4 hours to get home.
But that does not matter, I keep thinking that could have been us, wiped out.
Afew seconds and we could have been the ones on fire, oh my god, FATE. It makes you realise life is too short.
I am really shook up about this. the sad end to a wonderful day.

Look it is awful to think that someones life may have ended and it does make you realise that life is not something guaranteed to last 80+ years.
Seeing something like that will shake you up but you have to go and carry on with your life in a positive way. It is things like that which make you put all the small concerns and problems in your own life to the back of you mind and make you feel thankful for the things that you take for granted.
Try and remember the great day you had and not what you saw on the way home.

oh god, im not surprised, it was like a nightmare.
Those poor people, what a horrific ending. Hope my kids get over it.
It does make you realise how valuable life is. And how it could have been us.
