I am not suggesting that we do not learn from their mistakes, this event has made me reconsider several areas where I can improve my safety. I am just suggesting that in the process as we reflect on this that we also think about what we are doing with our own lives and what our priorities are. It is easy to allow your priorities in life to shift away from what should be most important and realizing how your life can change or end in a day it is maybe time to take a look at how you are using what you have.
