Excerpt from The Link
Suddenly the big realization comes on. I hurt. I hurt and bleed, but I know that I hurt and bleed. I can feel it. I can feel it because I am alive!
How can I be alive? How can I fall four or five hundred feet and be alive? Why didn't the blasted parachute work? What could have happened? Could it be that the slender pine I lay under had broken my fall, and grabbed my parachute cords in her slender flimsy arms, and held me and kept me safe from death? Was it the tree? Or was it luck? Or training? Or God? I wasn't ready, my_ - mind said. I wasn't ready at all! T hen I lay and prayed.
