I warned you guys.
I warned myself.
I knew it was an omen and it happens like clockwork.
But this yearly "event" hit me very unexpectedly today.
One of our buddies died last night. On her bike, driving home she got hit by a car.
Fate can be so cruel. So many mixed feelings have gone through my head today. I was destraught when I saw her close friends who couldn't cope with any of it. i was shocked to know that I would never see her again.. and I was happy that she didn't suffer. But that she went instantly, yet peacefully. That poor family.
After today I have came to the conclusion that this yearly "event" is not an omen, but a curse that was bestowed on me that 1st time I came across it when I was 7 and had to get my tonsils removed...
Maybe her accident was just coincidental with the curse.. one would never know. But in honour of our friend Lindell van Niekerk- May you rest in peace and may angels lead you in.
Please be safe on the roads all of you...
