Don't let actions hurt and ruin you
Simon's Story
Church
Baseball
I was on the bench at my game. One of my teammates was up to bat, but then my coach told me it's my turn to bat. So I got my helmet and bat, and walked up to the plate. He threw my a pitch, and it was high so I let it go. Then he threw me another high pitch that I let go. On the third pitch, i swung the bat, and I hit the ball. But my hit ended up hitting my mom in the head. As soon as it hit her she feel to the ground, and the pronounced her dead.

Bus Crash
We were driving back, when all of a sudden a deer was in the middle of the road. The bus drive swerved to avoid the deer, but we went down a hill and kept going. The bus went into the water and got stuck on a rock. So I told everyone to stay calm and I would get them out. Joe and I got everyone out through the back, but I knew there was one left, and I went to save him. But the rock slipped, and the bus started to go into the water. Joe came after us, and saved us both. I was in the hospital after, and Joe came to see me. We were talking, and then I knew it was time to let go, so I told Joe goodbye. I died at the age of 12.
