Default Quick to judge

A friend sent this to me a while ago, i really loved the story kinda neat.

Guy: This is fun, we're speeding over 100 mph on the road on a motorcycle...
Girl: Slow down, I'm scared.
Guy: No, this is fun.
Girl: No it's not. Please it's too scary. Please, slow down!
Guy: Then tell me you love me.
Girl: Fine I love you. Slow down!
Guy: Now give me a BIG hug. Girl hugs him
Guy: Can you take my helmet off and put it on yourself? It's bugging me.

(in the paper the next day): A motorcycle had crashed into a building because of brake failure. Two people were on it, but only 1 had survived. The truth was, halfway down the road the guy realized that the brakes on his bike broke but he didn't want to let the girl know. Instead, he had her say she loved him and felt her hug one last time, then he had her wear his helmet so that she would live even though it meant that he would die.

I guess i posted this because It just seems to me that often the people who love us the very most do things without telling us their reasoning behind it, which to us may seem as though they are only thinking about themselves. However, their intention is only for our best. Maybe we should cherish those around us and who do love us and tell them we love them as much and for as long as we can, someday we might not be able to tell them so. We shouldn't be so quick to judge, maybe what we get in the end is not what was intended from the begining.

I guess I missed this story the first time!


"Maybe we should cherish those around us and who do love us and tell them we love them as much and for as long as we can, someday we might not be able to tell them so."

So true!

i know this i probably not the right thing to say....but its his own fault. he shouldnt of been going 100mph! speed kills.

i lost my best friend because some a$$ thought it'd be great to go 80mph down a street where the speed limit is 40.

so although in a way i feel sorry for the girl at loosing her boyfriend. and of course for his family and friends....i have no remorse for him. infact, better that he died then him killing some innocent person who wouldnt stand a chance of surviving being hit at 100mph.

I don't think he was going that fast just for the sake of going fast, I think he was doing that speed due to brake failure.

I'm not even sure if it's a real story, just a clever little tale to make you think about things a bit more.

but even if your brakes fail you can slow down by easing up on the accelerator. people make so many excuses for things instead of just admitting when they've done wrong.

If it is true, I think it is a wonderful expression of his love for her. So selfless. What I think true love should be.

It actually loox like one of those e-mails that tells you to send it to 10 really close friends immediately or you'll be struck by chronic jock itch.

I made up the jock itch thing but they do have some clause such as bad luck or some other BS associated with them.

I get chain letters all the time but I don't believe in them. Some have nice verses though!
