A high school near where Next Step Magazine is located (and where we have lots of friends) just lost five young women in a horrible car accident. The news has touched everyone in the community.
Car accidents happen every day. Some, by the grace of whatever you believe in, are minor. Some are not.
We become kind of immune to them as we drive along, listening to the radio, talking on the phone, chatting with friends. But please, please please. Let them serve as a reminder to drive safely. Pay attention to the road. Realize that you are valued cargo, and that no community wants to mourn the loss of its most precious gift: You.
