Sometimes I look around and think it's amazing there aren't more crimes considering how many criminals there are and that there aren't more car accidents considering how many dumbass, distracted and just plain bad drivers there are, not to mention the sheer volume of automobiles on the road.
When something bad happens we tend to think, "If they had only been fives seconds earlier..." or "If they had only been five seconds later..." The same principle applies to good things, but we usually don't know how close we were to disaster.
We should be thankful every day for crimes that don't happen, for accidents that don't occur and for good timing that we don't even realize we've experienced.
