I just recently had my first ever collision with a car in 60+ years of bicycling. They didn't stop when they were turning left and I was going straight. Stoplight controlled intersection. My right off way. Glancing blow, so no harm to me. They need to get that fender repainted...studded tires!
Less than a week later I fell on an icy sidewalk where the roof gutters are run onto the sidewalk. In a climate with days that freeze and thaw that is negligence.
I still get up in the morning, say a quick " modeh ani" and go on with the day, aware that Shlomo the Wise was right... time and chance happen to all. I'm still walking on the sidewalk.
What else should I do? Spit over my shoulder while standing on one foot? Life is a joyous gift and meant to be lived.
