There are guardian angels

Sometimes they appear to you in the strangest of ways and circumstances. Today in Houston there was major flooding, I drowned in my car freaking out. There were at least 20 people in the parking lot I was trying to pull into just looking in shock at the chaos around them. I opened my door water was coming in and tried with all my might to push the car up the driveway.

The water was at least waist high out of nowhere not wanting anything a big freightliner truck pulled up. A man jumped out and screamed we are going to help you. A man came to my car and said wait there I will help you out and then they took their truck and pulled my car from the water. They tried to drive me home but there was another person stuck in their car so these guardian angels job is to help people to dry ground. I am sure that as I write this they the 3 of them are still out there helping people to dry ground.

At the moment I am really drained and just trying to see the good that happened today.
I am at home after walking 3 miles, clean and dry. My car is more than likely very badly damaged. And there are 100s of people in the same situation in my opinion. A Lorazapan and a hot bath later I really do not care about the metal.

Got told by my brother that I need to snap out of it. Got told by my mother that I should go get a protection blessing put on me. It would be nice if I believed in it. I guess to others I must look over reactive. All I want to tell them is where they can go.

This is not my car but one of the many that got stuck in the high waters.

(((NH))), you are not over reacting. I have major panics if I need to drive through a flood. I always stop and assess how other cars cope with it.

You were up to your waist in water. From what you have said here and in chat last night, I think you should be very proud of how you managed the situation. You walked home in soaking wet clothes after a scary ordeal in a bad neighbourhood.

To me, you are not over reacting.
 
I am shredded today. The stress and fear from yesterday is over the top. Why don't they get it. Why do I have to feel like an absolute loser unable to manage? What part of this does come accross as just a bad day? To me nothing , I guess to my family it would just be another day NOT if they where there.
