The Best Wishes for Christmas Are Those Resulting in the Preservation of One’s Hopes, Dreams, Dignity, and Health Opines Experienced Personal Injury Lawyer
All human life has a destination and it is said that God laughs at those who make plans. As an experienced catastrophic personal injury lawyer since 1979, I am all too well aware of what happens when an unexpected tragic event occurs, resulting in the devastating loss of one’s hopes and dreams. Each year in my profession as a catastrophic personal injury lawyer, I become intimately involved in the lives of victims and their families whose lives have been changed forever. I have learned some of the most important lessons in my life and have enjoyed some of the highest and truest moments in my life observing the intangible and invisible spirit of the human heart and mind. The shattered hearts and hopes of many of my clients have enabled my head to understand more for tomorrow and I have understood that although many people ask for happiness on conditions, happiness can only be felt if you do not set any conditions.
At this time of the year, we must celebrate each day and understand that the hardships that are put in our path or life enable us to gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience where we look fear or horror in the face. One must be able to say to oneself, “I have lived through this horror and I am able to take the next thing that comes along.” Mark Twain once said that “courage is not the absence of fear but the mastery of it.”
Based upon last year’s figures, the National Safety Council estimates that more than 600 people across the United States will die in motor vehicle crashes during the Christmas season and more than 60,000 will be seriously injured in a car accident. Never drink while intoxicated and understand that you must drive defensively during the holiday season. Most of these accidents can be prevented with the exercise of caution. Take it from one who often sees the tragic consequences of accidents.
