 This was something I needed to see today.

I had two friends in the car. I came up to an intersection where I forgot it was a 2 way stop. I was distracted by watching this kid to see if he was going to cross my path or not. I saw that he stopped so I chose to go before he changed his mind lol.

Halfway through the intersection I see a pickup truck headed our way, right as my friend is reacting and yelling my name. It was in slow-mo and we did not get hit. It probably was not even close but my brain was elsewhere. I don't remember if I stopped or kept going. But then I saw a police officer behind the truck and I knew he was coming for me.

I did get pulled over and this was the nicest police officer. I was lucky. He said "I pulled you over because you almost caused a wreck at that intersection. So I wanted to ask you if everything is ok?" Holy cow not what I expected. He ran my license and then let me go.

I eventually got back to work and I saw this in the sky. I needed to see it. It's like a heart shaped angel.

This was a situation gone right. We were so lucky but I still feel weird and guilty. I am thankful for how things went, but I don't feel right. Anyway, thank you to my angel!

I was going to say he's there all the time. Sometimes we need to see.
