I'll never forget the day I grew old.

I was speeding home on that October morning with a load of groceries. I was anxious to get going so I could get up to the lake and get some hiking in before dark. As I turned the corner onto my block, another car rolled into the corner of my eye. I knew I wouldn't be able to stop in time. I watched my car roll forward, and saw the woman driving the other car gripping the steering wheel.

Her little Honda was no match for my F-150. I can still hear the crunch, the shatter, the creaking groan. It seemed to go on forever.
