Shaken

I came in early to work today. Got here at 7:30a.m. as opposed to my usual 8:30a.m. And thank God that I felt I had to travel early this morning. My sister called me up at 8:25a.m frantic with worry. I could hear her freaking out and she asked me where I was and I was surprised. I said, "I'm at work. I came in early this morning" to which she let out a loud "Thank God". Then she told me that she was listening to the news and there was a hostage takeover situation happening at Union Station. That sent shivers up my spine, because Union Station is where I get off in Toronto (to come to work). Had I taken my usual train, I would've been caught in the middle of this situation. Thank goodness for Divine Intervention. This week has definitely been eventful. We had relatives visiting and had a grand time with them. Then I sprained my neck and shoulder and am suffering quite honestly. Now, this hostage situation right here! It's made me very emotional and very thankful indeed. It's funny sometimes - the timing of things.
